[f. QUIRKY a. + -NESS.] The quality of being quirky.
1867. Nelson Exam., 19 Feb., 3/4. But Mr. Curtis dared to reckon that property, worth £1,000, would only yield £100 a-year. Here is quirkiness with a vengeance.
1879. Sir G. Scott, Lect. Archit., I. 355. All the pieces of quirkiness which one sees, are things which I have rarely if ever found in old work.
