Answer

Koko ~ Since you know the name of the book, it is no longer "a book." It has a name, making it "the," not "a." "A book" refers to a generic book, unnamed and unknown. Once identified, it becomes "the book." In addition, the word, "titled" is better than the word "named." A book has a title, not a name. So, your most precise, concise and well-constructed sentence is as follows:
I collected this quote from the book titled, "One Time."

Answer

My instinct is that, in the U.S., "called" is used much more often than "named", especially when referring to works of art.

Answer

Yes, both sentences are correct but you need to know how and when use articles (a/an/the)

Answer

Both sentences are correct. Apostrophes are appropriate (not brackets.) I grew up with titles needing to be capitalized and underlined. Underlining has gone away, but not the captialization. Good luck.
