The Quotes site notice will have 6 different quotes (all translated, we hope) rotated in.
I don't know - I think it would be interesting, at least on the English Wikipedia, to see some quotes in other languages. It would reinforce to the people who see quotes in Chinese or Russian that Wikimedia is an international project with broadly global goals.
Normally I would agree with you. Last year, I was *all* for putting as many language quotes on the sitenotices as possible. However, if we are only going to have 6 quotes and they are going to be show-cased in such a large way (as opposed to a little line below the "people mover"), we should probably have them in the local language.
