Very tough, indeed. In fact, after a few false starts with the quote, I used the hunch that the Ws in the author’s first name would be Ns, and worked backwards from there. Surely it’s our first Stanislavski quote!
Yeah, I spun my wheels on this one for some time. I first thought the Ws were Ss, but that gave me TASTIS for the back part of the first name! Switching to N made a big difference, because then I saw IN, AND and NOT, and it finally started falling into place. This is definitely our first Stanislavski quote, Hal/Roy!

For some reason, WordPress started using my first (given) name, Roy, instead of my preferred middle (nick) name, Hal. Two names, one person. You sussed it out exactly right, UR!
Thank you for this website! I’ve added it to my favorites. This cryptoquote really had me stumped.
My pleasure, friend! — YUR
This, indeed, was a tough one. Kept playing with which of the three letter words could be THE and went from there. Whew.
