Have you seen the LCD examples in Cookbook ? http://mbed.org/cookbook/Text-LCD
You only need to slice strings if they are more than the LCD width, but even then a part of a string is a "complete" string , too .
If you use a 8x2 char LCD , you can print for example 8 chars in a line ( it depends on the LCD library , if excess text is wrapped to the next line or ignored )
Text displays are usually 8x1 ,8x2 , 16x1 , 16 x2 , 20x 1 , 20x2 , 40x 2 etc char sizes ....
