Melksham Quiz

Help!!!! I have just got round to the Melksham quiz please can anyone help on the following:-
Quotations and Author
4. I can only find a 3 word quote for this so is the 3rd word 'indeed'
6. I can only find 3 word quote for this one too so is the middle 'more or less'
21. I have trolled lots of books and lots on the net but cant find anything to suit, I know its Rudyard Kipling and think the last words may be 'we get from having too little to do' If I am right can anyone tell me where I can look it up.
Many thanks.

I'm not doing this quiz/haven't seen it, but the quote you give (21.) is from How the Camel Got his Hump, part of Kipling's Just So Stories. Hope this helps. The full story appears below:

The Camel's hump is an ugly lump
Which well you may see at the Zoo;
But uglier yet is the hump we get
From having too little to do.

Kiddies and grown-ups too-oo-oo,
If we haven't enough to do-oo-oo,
We get the hump --
Cameelious hump --
The hump that is black and blue!

We climb out of bed with a frouzly head,
And a snarly-yarly voice.
We shiver and scowl and we grunt and we growl
At our bath and our boots and our toys;

And there ought to be a corner for me
(And I know' there is one for you)
When we get the hump --
Cameelious hump --
The hump that is black and blue!

The cure for this ill is not to sit still,
Or frowst with a book by the fire;
But to take a large hoe and a shovel also,
And dig till you gently perspire;

And then you will find that the sun and the wind,
And the Djinn of the Garden too,
Have lifted the hump --
The horrible hump --
The hump that is black and blue!

I get it as well as you-oo-oo --
If I haven't enough to do-oo-oo!
We all get hump --
Cameelious hump --
Kiddies and grown-ups too!
