Probably the best one to start with is FuhQuake (http://www.fuhquake.net/)
which is also found in the excellent eQuake package
(http://equake.quakeworld.nu) which also includes a bunch of other very
useful utilities etc.

Like most modern QuakeWorld replacements, FuhQuake allows you to play single
player in the same game engine as used for QuakeWorld. It doesn't support
normal Quake networking (which I doubt you would truly miss), or playback of
normal Quake demos (which you might, if you try to watch a Quake done Quick
runthrough, for instance).
