No, it can't be that. My ODQ Fourth Edition doesn't have a single quote by the person I think it is and when I Ctrl F quotation marks on his Wiki page there are 100 entries!

Thanks Malone.

So I'm not going wasting hours fruitlessly searching can I just check that it's a quote by a Persian King?

Just to be clear, alwayspuzzled, the Wiki page of the unclued entry, not the person making the quote.

Thanks Malone, but it doesn't help. My unclued entry is a herb so doubt it was famed for it's famous quotations!!

Brendan, the herb is the second listing if you put the word into Wiki. I've just checked. The first listing could help...

Got it, but I think I'll look at it again tomorrow with fresh eyes.

Thank you for your patience Malone, much appreciated:-)

Thanks, Brendan. I haven't looked at the mentioned page myself, but the earlier hint seemed to suggest it'd be useful.
