I did get one person who went all in against me with the second set of quad aces I hit yesterday, but he decided to bet the whole way, so he made it easy. When I have someone who just checks because they are pretty passive, I'm just not sure what to do I guess.
You'll flop quads infrequently enough that even if you open-folded them, you're not going to hurt your bankroll by much.

So it's hard to say you played them wrong. I might have tried for a small bet on the turn. Or probably a bet on the flop because I almost always bet the flop and it would look odd if I suddenly checked from the button there. But you probably got the max from this hand.
