Someone was listening to a bunch of famous quotes, but they wrote them down wrong! Figure out which ones they were listening to! They may not have written the whole quote. (not sure if the english tag is correct, feel free to change it).

Toby Arnott: "Toby".

Toad eh? Icon cider mice elf the locky East Manon, thieve ace off they hearth.

  • I think this could have been a little more creative and challenging. I did not even need to read it to the end before I knew the way to solve it - It's not exactly the same, but see this for why this puzzle is so easy. – Jonathan Allan Apr 26 '16 at 19:36
  • Very similar to this question. Not sure if it would be considered a duplicate, though... – GentlePurpleRain Apr 26 '16 at 20:42

    @JonathanAllan How does the linked article relate to this puzzle? – GentlePurpleRain Apr 26 '16 at 20:45
  • @GentlePurpleRain - only an example that it's pretty easy to read things that are close in form in one way or another and that there may be ways to make a similar puzzle that would be more challenging; it's what sprang to mind when I had the method before I'd finished scanning the question. – Jonathan Allan Apr 26 '16 at 21:21
  • @JonathonAllen the spillnegs are toltaly deffiernt tahn the way the qoutes are slleped :). It's only the sounds that are similar. I admit it was easy, but I've heard over and over again that an easy puzzle is not necessarily a bad puzzle. – Richard Roe Apr 27 '16 at 02:13

    @GentlePurpleRain it is very similar, but they are different quote, so I do not think it is a duplicate. And just so you know, I may have viewed that puzzle when you posted it, but I have no recollection of doing so. – Richard Roe Apr 27 '16 at 02:17
  • @RichardRoe, yes I know - I did not vote to close, and yes it is a puzzle. I am merely pointing out that it was extremely easy (and what I think makes it so) - as I said it's not exactly the reason in that article, but it's a similar property (my spelling is absolutely awful by the way, maybe that's why I find it such a similar property?). – Jonathan Allan Apr 27 '16 at 03:49
  • Re: reasons this is not particularly difficult... This is what sprang to mind for me. – feelinferrety Apr 27 '16 at 21:01
