"The question in every case is whether the words used are used in such circumstances and are of such a nature as to create a clear and present danger that they will bring about the substantive evils that the United States Congress has a right to prevent. It is a question of proximity and degree. When a nation is at war, many things that might be said in time of peace are such a hindrance to its effort that their utterance will not be endured so long as men fight, and that no Court could regard them as protected by any constitutional right."

-Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

Does it refer to the quote or the code?


EXCELLENT question!

Some of these hints refer to the quote itself, some to the Speaker or Quoter and some to the code type/structure.

Hint #1 The Knickerbocker hint is about the quoter (it's a bit obscure...)


Hint #2 The incorrect Nixon quote was the closest yet because the first letter of the first word is correct (i.e., the correct quote first word starts with a P) .

Hint # 3 The Pilot Lingo hint is concerning the code deciphering structure. (it's not Lima Charlie). Sorry! I looked on Google and some sites do refer to the correct terminology.

I will clarify the hints more, if you define what you want to know specifically...

I do appreciate you all trying this hard. Nice attempts!

i got a few I want to try;

1. Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power. -Abraham Lincoln

2. I never had a policy; I have just tried to do my very best each and every day -Abraham Lincoln

Didnt read that the first word starts with p my bad. here are some better quotes-

1.Politics is not the art of the possible. It consists in choosing between the disastrous and the unpalatable. - John Galbraith

2.Politicians are the same all over. They promise to build a bridge even where there is no river.-Nikita Krushchev

Since Yotie has done an admirable job in the spacing of the letters and since I don't want people wasting their time with incorrect spacing... I will show the proper spacing.


The following is the correct spacing of the code words (but not into distinct words, sentences or paragraphs...):

Enjoy!
