5. Can't remember the author, but it's London.

Bonus: Canada?
I'm going to award points for the Calais answer, as it's correct. I was actually after a similar quote (by another person) relating to another city, and there are still two points available for that answer.

London is correct, Canada is not.

3. For the Calais version of this quote, very close but not quite.

5. Correct.

4. Rome. Said by Augustus Caesar.
Very good! All correct.
