Does JSON require everything be quoted?

no. The first is a boolean (true) the second is a string "true"

JSON requires that keys and string values are properly delimited with " quotes. Other values should not have quotes. This means that "success":true and "success":"true" are not the same — the first is a boolean value and the second is a string value.

For more information, see http://json.org.
