I haven't the stamina to check: What's the shortest of the 1500
examples, with/without correct grammatical plurals?
The alternative REXX version might be a good candidate for correct grammar.
Another interesting page, with Quines, can be found on rosettacode.org
<http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Quine>. Here a version in z/OS assembler is still
missing, and the versions that compile with z/OS Cobol seem to be quite big. The
PL/I versions are probably optimal, although I would love to be proved wrong.
Some shorter non-cheating REXX Quines can be found on
<http://www.nyx.net/~gthompso/quine.htm>, which also has an APL version which is
not on the page on Rosetta.
And then, not really a Quine, there's this one,
