I am reading The Windup Girl right now (excellent! bravo! love it!) and came across a great quote that I wanted to share. You could put it into rotation with the other random quotes that pop up on the the site / forum. Maybe you only have room for the second part (the money line) but the sentence leading up to it helps clarify.

She grins. "I'm not a yellow card. I don't have anything to fear."
Hock Seng makes himself smile in return, thinking that she does not know how little anyone cares to separate wheat from chaff, when all anyone wants to do is burn a field.

Added it thus:

You should be able to add your own quotes.  Have you tried the "Quotes" link up under the forum header?  Let me know if you have any trouble or if you can't see the link.
