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 ASK THE GROUP FOR HELP!
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.
Tough little one today from The Arkansas Gazette.
Stick with it, and take a break and come back to it.

AUDIO: 55min: Hidden Forces Podcast: Ep 282: Who is Sam Bankman-Fried and what really happened at FTX?
In Episode 282 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with famed short seller Marc Cohodes about Sam Bankman-Fried, the recent bankruptcy of FTX, and the bigger story behind the alleged fraud that he and his network of enablers have perpetrated.
Marc Cohodes has famously exposing numerous corporate frauds at great personal expense and risk to himself and his family. So, when Cohodes began raising the alarm earlier this year by publicly calling FTX a scam, while describing Sam Bankman-Fried as a fraudster, many of us took notice...
The origins of his co-founder Gary Wang—who no one talks about—and the backgrounds of other members of his organization including chief compliance officer Dan Friedberg and chief operating officer Constance Wang also raise concerns...

This one was easy.
CNC was the break for me. Then CR ... Then I.... It fell into place.
That being said, the actual quote made no sense to me.
Perfectionists.
The last word is a gimme.
Yes, lots of clues, but it’s an advanced puzzle...
Shows how good you are at these!!!!
The first word is not “robots”
CNC had me baffled.LOL. It was the first word I tried to decode.
Well we sure can’t accuse the Republican Party of violating this dictum.
Those were the keys for me. It fell together quickly.
He said something similar (supposedly) - the only thing necessary for evil to prevail....
