Thanks to everyone that respondedI would never have figured that out.
7stud,
Your suggestion is being considered lol, as there are a lot more bits of
code in that book that I can't get running correctly.
Any other books you'd, or anyone for that matter, would recommend as

sentence = raw_input('Sentence: ')
screen_width = 80
text_width = len(sentence)
box_width = text_width + 6
left_margin = (screen_width - box_width) // 2

print ' ' * left_margin + '+' + '-' * box_width + '+'
print ' ' * left_margin + '|' + ' ' * box_width + '|'
print ' ' * left_margin + '|
