With a sharpened quarterstaff you may STAB your target. You may also QUARTERSTAFF BLUNT to remove the sharpened end.

Spinning your quarterstaff will provide you an aura of protection against both physical and magical damage.

Tapping your quarterstaff will provide you with a lightsource.

Whirling your quarterstaff will cleanse the air around you, removing noxious fumes.

Flailing your quarterstaff will also provide you with an aura of protection against physical and magical damage. This is more effective against physical damage than spinning your quarterstaff, but less effective against magical.
