Quiztime

All rightie my little lambkins, it's time for another exciting edition of "Quiztime" with your genial host Yorrrrrrkshire Pudding! (Loud applause and wolf whistling). Today's quiz asks you to consider some quotations and decide who said them. I already admit that some will be tricky and others easy but please don't try to quieten your frustration by smashing your computer device. These things cost a lot of money. Answers will be provided in the comments section.
