Interesting... Even on jetpunk "Quiz" doesn't qualify. Questionable quotations are quite possible. But I should be quiet, cause I don't want to quarrel.

Quite! Your quakerlike quietitude has quashed a quarrel, although, qualitatively, quiztakers rate quiz quite highly. But the ruthless qualculation derived from quantitative methods scores quiz a quappy quantum of 7 times in a million.
