A plea for help

I take the bus most days, coming home from school (this laptop is heavy! I'll walk to the boat, but not from, not when it's dark) and I often see religious scrawlings on the ads lining the inside of the bus, generally of the theme "Believe in God's love or you'll burn forever in Hell". I really don't understand this, it certainly doesn't bring anybody closer to God... do they believe that He smiles on those who graffiti in His name?
Anyway, in a nice change from the bland, today's scribblings were all about homosexuality. Most of it had been thoughtfully crossed out by some other bored bus rider with a black marker (yay!) but s/he had missed the line at the top which quoted, or attempted to quote, from Leviticus.
I would never demean myself in such a way as writing on public property like that. However, I would like to have some handy notecards with other bible verses, including other, more relevant commandments, such as "judge not" and "don't eat that shrimp". I know they exist, I just don't know where. I will certainly amuse myself later by looking up the relevant passages myself, but because I'm so terribly lazy, I wondered if anybody with any Biblical knowledge could point me towards appropriate Biblical passages...?
