@spunkycumfun
Just catching up now, not sure I'll see it before your answers go on though.
I'm late to this one, but I swore Mae West was in there. I was wrong.
There'll be another quiz soon.
Many of these were familiar but I’m too lazy to type out my answers/guesses! How about a five question quiz next time, Mr. Wordy? 😉
I’m pretty sure JFK, Churchill and Clinton were in there, along with possibly Mae West and Marilyn Monroe.
Three out of five names you mentioned are answers. Mr Wordy will consider your request for a shorter quiz next time if there is to be a next time.
Below are the correct answers in parentheses after the quotation.

"Ich bin ein Berliner." - JFK
"Only good girls keep diaries. Bad girls don't have time." - Sounds like something Mae West would have said, but I'm not sure.
"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience." - That sounds like a George Carlin one.
"The line is that I’m a dictator, but I stop crime.... So a lot of people say, ‘You know, if that’s the case, I’d rather have a dictator'.... Most people say … 'if he stops crime, he can be whatever he wants'.” - Is that what Donnie 2 Weeks said just the other day?
"Those are my principles, and if you don't like them ... well, I have others." - No idea
"Great Britain has lost an empire and has not yet found a role." - No idea.
"I don't want to go to heaven. None of my friends are there.” - No idea
"Voting Tory [Conservative Party] will cause your wife to have bigger breasts and increase your chances of owning a BMW M3." - No idea
"I have never hated a man enough to give his diamonds back." - No idea
"We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender." - Winston Churchill
"Houston, we have a problem." - Jim Lovell, though that's not EXACTLY what he said.
"Let them eat cake." ("Qu'ils mangent de la brioche." ) - Marie Antoinette
"I did not have sexual relations with that woman...." - Bill Clinton
"We are very similar. We are both serial sex addicts.... He likes to engage in stuff that's even kinky to me - and I'm the king of kink!" - I guess they're talking about Sean (Puff Daddy) Combs, but not sure who said it.
Thanks for playing. I'll reveal all on Monday.

The site's chief executive officer, Brock Purpura, has recently blogged - see Hello Everyone! - though no comments were allowed on his post and I didn't receive an alert to the post despite following his blog.
@WyoCowboy7751 There is an irony there but at least he's showing his face on the site.
Maybe he is afraid of what people will say since some people will just vent.
@classicalrebel4 I think he knows some critical and even abusive comments would be left.
@OddsAgainst He was the founder's pick!
