The way it works is a letter stands for another letter. For example: AXYDLBAAXR is LONGFELLOW (does not apply to today's cryptogram).
Beware, the game is very addictive. If this is your first time, don't be intimidated, you’ll be solving them all within a few days. If you’re stumped, take a break and return to it.
PLEASE DO NOT post the answer in general comments, but DO post your time and how you made out.
You can certainly send your solution to my private reply, or if you need a hint for today’s Cryptogram.
I suggest printing these out and work them on paper. If you need a little help you can copy and paste it to Hal’s Helper below.
You can then work on the puzzle without using pen and paper, but I recommend that you do NOT look at the letter counter.
One last request. Feel free to post a fun or clever clue, the more tangential to the quotation the better, but please don’t put the actual words of the quote in the clue.
FREEDOM IS NOT PROCURED BY A FULL ENJOYMENT OF WHAT IS DESIRED, BUT BY CONTROLLING THE DESIRE. EPICTETUS
Easy one today.
Everyone should be solving today’s under two minutes.
Yep. Never heard of the author.
Right. Contraction, short words, easy!
Black Congresswoman from Brooklyn. Known for her hats. A progressive, but not a nut case.
The left seems to think that’s the only way...
Surely you jest?
First black woman in Congress. First elected in 1968.

About 3 minutes.
I may beg to differ....
Author was a pacesetter though!!!
‘Put me in coach, I don’t smoke’ (if you know, you know)
I like to do the puzzle in the morning while I am eating breakfast. It takes me a little longer. Hahahaha
