Stuck on this step of the venery? Find progressively stronger hints below. And if you're really fed up with it, the solution is at the bottom of the page. Give yourself a chance to work it out, though!
Hint #1
The key to solving this kind of puzzle is to look for words that fit the spaces. For instance, the word CATS fits neatly into the first four-letter word on the top row. Crossing those letters out leaves only two letters in some of those columns, which makes it easier to figure out the other words.
Hint #2
The solution is a quote by TERRY PRATCHETT, whose name appears in the bottom row of the main puzzle.
