Can a thesis statement be two sentences long?

[Edit]

Yes, a thesis statement can be two sentences long.

While following a "formula" for writing, usually one sentence is used. This means that one sentence is usually playing it safe. If you chose to have a longer thesis statement, you are not playing it safe, implying that there is a level of risk involved. To successfully use a two sentence thesis, reread it a few times and make sure it makes sense.
