Default quince (cydonia) - edible?

Am thinking of planting a cydonia (quince) in my north facing but large
enough to get a few hours of sun each day garden (have been put off the
Judas tree ) but have just read that teh seeds are poisonous - my
intention was to use the fruit for jams etc. Is it just a case of coring
them like apples? How poisonous are the seeds? (has anyone eaten one and
survived ??)
