Here's a few non-Butler ones I could find (because everything with Butler in is funny, but it does pretty much confirm what I was saying)
John Koller-Marketing executive:
“If Nintendo is really committed to reaching a broader, more diverse audience of gamers beyond the ‘kids’ market that they've always engaged, there isn't much new with the DSi to support that. Significant gamer demographic groups are being ignored, and there continues to be limited opportunities for games from external publishers to do well on the DSi. Compare that with the PSP platform, where we have many blockbuster franchises from our publishing partners launching this year, representing a wide variety of genres and targeting diverse demographics. Games such as Rock Band Unplugged from MTV Games, Assassin's Creed from Ubisoft, Dissidia Final Fantasy from Square Enix, and Hannah Montana from Disney demonstrate the commitment that publishers have to the PSP. From our own first-party studios, we're launching unique versions of LittleBigPlanet and MotorStorm, and we're also planning a steady stream of downloadable games -- both new titles and PSone classics -- to add to the content that PSP owners can already purchase wirelessly through PlayStation Store.”
Ken Kutaragi- Exec
"You can communicate to a new cybercity. Did you see the movie The Matrix? Same interface. Same concept. Starting from next year, you can jack into The Matrix!"
"The PS3 is not a game machine. It's something else. It's better than that. "
"[We want] consumers to think to themselves 'I will work more hours to buy one'. We want people to feel that they want it, irrespective of anything else."
"It's probably too cheap ... This is the PS3 price. Expensive, cheap -- we don't want you to think of it in terms of game machines. Because the PS3 is like nothing else."
And who could forget 'It only does everything'? There's many, many more, but that's a good example of the over-confidence and arrogance I was talking about

I was responding to these quotes, but I see you've added a lot more. I shall work on explaining why most of those quotes don't prove your point and I'll post some Nintendo & Microsoft quotes to show that they are just as bad as Sony. (or at least a few of Son'y employees). This may take a while though.

I can wait. Infact, I'll help:

But there's no point. Because I'm aware of that fact. It's all a PR stunt, after all. But Sony do it more than everyone else.
I'm also aware that there's always a few select people, and, as has been stated, they're much better than they used to be (however, some of them, like the 3DS one, is quite recent). But that's the point, it's a few people. It's not representing Sony as a whole. But they do have to be wary, as it's mostly the PR guys who are doing it, the people who are in the public domain.
In general, Sony, like every company, aren't arrogant, or big-heaed, or anything like that. But it doesn't mean that they haven't said things that are.
