I wouldn't offer the reason unless they press you for it or they want to do an exit interview. I did exactly what you are doing two months ago. Quit my job of 4 years with nothing lined up. The answers everyone has given you are right (except I don't know yet what has happened with my matched RRSPs). I actually just signed a deal to go back to work with a company in a completely unrelated industry this afternoon and can't wait.
Enjoy the time off, clear your head and when you are ready hit the ground running with a new company that will be excited to have you on board.
Also, don't wait too long to put your name out there for new employers. I had a number of solid things in the works about a week after I quit and it took a couple months to get everything ready and to sign the contract.
Good luck man.
