Guest Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Since all my riddles answers will be plain for you to see. Then Heyupal will mix the words and make them hard to read. Like... “A nepny veasd si a nnpye reande” is quickly deciphered and easily read. Then as you can see Ben F. had to speak the quote that you now have in your head. Solving the riddle(s?) will not be the quotes, Nor the speakers for I know that you can. The quote is the clue, but the answer I seek, Be commonality of woman or man! So come with me and let’s just see how many you get today.... I’ll start with just three quotations and wish you much fun, let’s play! #1 Het slaw fo ratune rea tub eht teamhtamlica soutghth fo Odg. #2 Ton thaw ew ehva utb twah ew joney, sinstoutect uro danbecaun. #3 Ew vile ont sa ew shiw ot, tub sa ew acn.

0 plainglazed Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Cool format from the heyupal. something like gratitude? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Cool format from the heyupal. something like gratitude? Nope, unscramble the quotes, identify who said it and make the connection. The connection should be obvious if you perform the first 2 steps! And thanks for the compliment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't translate the last word of the second line yet so I'm stuck. I got the other 2 quotes, but can't figure out who said the first one. Grroowlll. Will keep working at it, though. This is very clever. Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Fileobrother Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 1: "The laws of nature are but the mathematical thoughts of God." Euclid 2:" Not what we have But what we enjoy, constitutes our abundance." Either John Petit-Senn, or Charles Spurgeon 3: "We live, not as we wish to, but as we can." Menander Yeah, I guess the only thing that I see as a connection is contentment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 deannaart Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Ok, I had to get some help, but this is what I came up with...1. The laws of nature are but the mathematical thoughts of god ~Euclid 2.Not what we have but what we enjoy, constitutes our abundance ~Epicurus 3.We live not as we wish to but as we can ~Mencius So the commonality is they were all ancient philosophers?

0 Guest Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Yikes, the first one i kinda remembered but the other two? Heyu, where the.... It's all greek to me. PG nails it!! #1 Euclid - Greek Scientist/Mathematician 365BC - 275BC The laws of nature are but the mathematical thoughts of God. #2 Epicurus - Greek Philosopher 341BC - 271BC Not what we have but what we enjoy, constitutes our abundance. #3 Menander - Greek Poet 342BC - 292BC We live, not as we wish to, but as we can. Connection!!!! All Greeks living at the same time. Bit of senseless trivia! They also lived too be 90, 70 and 50 years old! (Arguable historical fact!) New one coming out!

Question
Guest
Since all my riddles answers
will be plain for you to see.
Then Heyupal will mix the words
and make them hard to read.
Like... “A nepny veasd si a nnpye reande”
is quickly deciphered and easily read.
Then as you can see Ben F. had to speak
the quote that you now have in your head.
Solving the riddle(s?) will not be the quotes,
Nor the speakers for I know that you can.
The quote is the clue, but the answer I seek,
Be commonality of woman or man!
So come with me and let’s just see
how many you get today....
I’ll start with just three quotations
and wish you much fun, let’s play!
#1
Het slaw fo ratune rea tub eht teamhtamlica soutghth fo Odg.
#2
Ton thaw ew ehva utb twah ew joney, sinstoutect uro danbecaun.
#3
Ew vile ont sa ew shiw ot, tub sa ew acn.
Footnote:
I could not find anything like this when I searched.
If liked.....Heyupal has more! <~~~Illeism!!
