I can't say about most of the quotes, but I've heard "as dead as 4 o'clock" before. That's something my Dear Old Dad used to say.
“Trouble rather the tiger in his lair than the sage among his books. For to you kingdoms and their armies are things mighty and enduring, but to him they are but toys of the moment, to be overturned with the flick of a finger.”
