There is no predetermined amount of copyrighted material that is eligible for "fair use" before an infringement occurs.

US Copyright Law does set out criteria that has to be considered before something can be judged to be "fair use"

# The purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes
# The nature of the copyrighted work
# The amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole
# The effect of the use upon the potential market for, or value of, the copyrighted work
