I searched “Fortune Cookie Fortunes” on Google and some random guy wrote a blog post from 2008 (that was recently updated) with about 200 fortunes.

I am going to spend some time this weekend copying the positive and arty ones.
And love your idea - show us pics when you get started.
Fantastic! Thanks for sharing that link! Once my stamps arrive I’ll get started with some prep work.
Those are great!! Now I am torn over whether I want to buy fish stamps (who doesn’t need fish stamps!) or make my own slightly smaller ones.
@grenouille78 Now I must sic my daughter on this tradition. She will love it, and my inner 12-year-old is deeply sad that I didn’t learn about it when I was a kid. 
Do iiiit!
They are so much bigger than I thought! I went to look at the listing. I’m tempted but may also carve something smaller for myself.
I was tempted to buy it too but between your comment and thanate’s I realize I have the stuff to make my own stamps and should actually use what I have!
Go for it, both of you. If I had the patience or talent to carve, I would. On my list of things to try when I’m an old lady. Oh wait…that time is near.
WOW! I love all the cool details you’ve given and clever approaches you’ve made to these fish… every last one of 'em! 
I’ve love to find one of these, too!
You’ve given the the beginning of an idea for making bookmarks to leave in library books when I return them. I know some won’t make it past the librarians, but I bet a lot would. Heck, I could probably librarians in on the plot and they’d be down. 
Our library usually has a stack of bookmarks at the check-out desk; I’m sure they’d be happy to add some art ones, too!
Yes! I actually thought of this in the time between replying and now! But there is also something fun about another reader discovering a secret gift bookmark in their newest borrowed book.
Do some of each! 
I also abandon in the Little Libraries - there’s one near my house! And you could be sneaky and put bookmarks in books on the shelf…I’ve found receipts and boarding passes in books from the library.
I love these! They are so fun and inspiring 
I might have to play with my stamps sometime soon
I’ve waited quietly and patiently, knowing someone was going to say it eventually, but no one has…So, alas, I guess I must:
THANKS FOR ALL THE FISH.
Okay, now that’s out there, I can properly ooo and ahh at these beauties. They really are wonderful.
In official librarian capacity I have secretly done this myself, solo, while on the clock (at previous job; can’t do it where I am now). And I still have a sticky-note I found in a returned academic library book 15 years ago, which simply says “Moo MOO cow. Cow. Moo”
Yey! We had lots of leftover business card size promotional cards for TheMisterT’s first 2 novels and I would leave them in books that I thought would appeal to people who would like his books. Guerrilla marketing!
And YEY Hitchhiker’s Guide!
Maybe a “Put A Fish On It” swap?
