I would suggest using a sans-serif font for the quotables while also tightening the width a little bit so you can increase impact and readability. Also, you might also want to put a light border around the quotes...perhaps with a drop shadow (much like embedded Tweets).
- levng 14y agoThanks for your suggestions. We've tried to keep a distinct 2D feel to the website so we are avoiding drop shadows as much as possible. But I agree with you that the quotes themselves need more clearly separated from each other. For the width of the quotes, we've tried to adhere to the 45 to 75 characters per line as recommended by by Robert Bringhurst in his "The Elements of Typographic Style", although our line lengths are towards the upper limit of that range.
