Inek ve "kocasi":
- Well, I'm the one who cleans, raises the children, and gives the milk. Women do all the work. And what do you men do?
- We only give meat once, that's it.
I think with the word "meat" there's a pun intended *wink*

You're welcome  Are these Selcuk Erdem cartoons? It sounds very much like it Well, here are your translations.
Sultan and a man:
1. - I had a question that goes like this:
What would you suggest to the youngsters who wish to be sultans?
- Just a moment .. <-- I think I remember this cartoon Doesn't this have the sultan adressing a group of students and one of them asks this question, and he's bending over to pick up an axe while he says "just a moment?" 
2. - It looks like you're going around here and there, chattering about removing sovereignty?
- Yes, but you shouldn't take it personally.

Well, there's Salih Memecan with his infamous "Bizim City" on the national Turkish newspaper "Sabah". He's more famous for his series called "Sizinkiler". It's about a family of chickens: Limon, Zeytin, Cit Cit and Babisko.
