The Daily Informer's Quote Quiz

Back in college, I had a lot of fun solving the Quote Quiz puzzles found in The Daily Informer. I was so hooked to the puzzles that I even cut them out and collected them. A few weeks back, I found them nestled inside my rotting folder and decided to encode them for future reference. Here are some of those quotes...
