Drop Quotes
Drop Quotes are similar to cryptograms,
in that the goal is for the solver
to uncover a hidden quote. A blackand-white
crossword-style grid is set
up for each quote, with a number of
letters “hovering” above each column.
Your task is to “drop” each of those
letters into the appropriate square in
each column, until the entire quote is
revealed. All punctuation (commas, periods,
dashes, etc.) has been removed.
Good luck!
