I just saw this on a Facebook group but apparently it’s all over the place.  Here are the rules:

- Grab the book nearest you right now.
- Turn to page 56.
- Find the fifth sentence.

- Post that sentence, along with these instructions, in a note on your wall.

NB Don’t dig for your favourite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

Here’s mine from the closest (and in fact only) book in my Montreal hotel room:

As Gary Becker, the conservative economist and Nobel Prize winner put it, “We were warriors in combat with most of the rest of the profession”.

 -  Naomi Klein, “The Shock Doctrine”

I don’t know why I think this is so cool, but I do.
