There is, of course, a very famous saying from Rueben Fine: "I'd rather have a pawn than a finger." It's often quoted during analysis. One of my favorite sayings, though, came as a response to this. About 40 players were watching an online broadcast of a major match. One of the players was a pawn down, and there was some argument as to how much compensation the other had.
