A successful social network is always going to have a lot of content you don't want. That's why you need to be filtering the sources of that content constantly.
Quora is an interesting case because it plays nicely with Twitter. I've found if you keep your Twitter feed curated, your Quora feed will be well curated too.
If someone is consistently tweeting junk, unfollow.
If there's a Quora board that has a ton of lousy questions, unfollow.
Don't feel committed to following someone once you have, and don't worry about whether your observations about a person's or board's signal to noise ratio are accurate or not - if a content creator belongs in your content world, they'll get back in one way or another.
Start right now. If you find useful comments in this thread, follow all commenters on Twitter and Quora. Best way to curate is to add more quality to differentiate from junk.
