Puzzle: N VENFY HGBHJG ZEB EDSG TDOJVR DCG D JBV QBCG NFVGCGRVNFX VEDF HGBHJG ZEB DCG HGCTGMV. – RHNYG JGG

Answer:

I THINK PEOPLE WHO HAVE FAULTS ARE A LOT MORE INTERESTING THAN PEOPLE WHO ARE PERFECT. – SPIKE LEE

Step 1: Identify Short Words

  • N could be I (common for single-letter words).
    • N = I.
  • D often represents A or I. Let’s hold off guessing this one for now.
  • DCG could be ARE or WHO (from the structure of the sentence).

Step 2: Initial Guesses

  • Let’s guess that N = I, VENFY is THINK.
    • V = T, E = H, N = I, F = N, Y = K.
  • HGBHJG could be PEOPLE.
    • H = P, G = E, B = O, J = L.
  • ZEB could be WHO.
    • Z = W, E = H, B = O.

Step 3: Apply Guesses

  • Now that we have some letters, let’s substitute them into the puzzle:
  • N VENFY becomes I THINK.
  • HGBHJG becomes PEOPLE.
  • ZEB becomes WHO.
  • EDSG could be HAVE (E = H, D = A, S = V, G = E).
  • TDOJVR could be FAULTS.
  • DCG becomes ARE (D = A, C = R, G = E).
  • D JBV becomes A LOT (D = A, J = L, B = O, V = T).
  • QBCG becomes MORE (Q = M, B = O, C = R, G = E).
  • NFVGCGRVNFX could be INTERESTING.
    • N = I, F = N, V = T, G = E, C = R, R = S, X = G.
  • VEDF becomes THAN (V = T, E = H, D = A, F = N).
  • HGCTGMV becomes PERFECT.

Step 4: Decode the Author’s Name

For RHNYG JGG:

  • R = S, H = P, N = I, Y = K, G = E (RHNYG = SPIKE).
  • JGG becomes LEE (J = L, G = E).
