Assign text to cells

[Squig]

Since I'm a good way through this project I hope that someone with greater expertise can solve this latest problem:

I want to assign a range of possible texts to a cell - potentially about 100 - such that when the user places a 1 in cell A1 the first statement appears alongside in A2, when a 3 is placed in A1 the third statement appears in A2, etc. My initial thought of nesting IF statements is both unwieldy and impossible. Hopefully someone can advise.

Thank you
