DROP QUOTES
Drop Quotes are similar to cryptograms,
in that the goal is for the solver to
uncover a hidden quote. A black-andwhite
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!
