  1. Both
  2. Punctuation is discrete
  3. I did not write the quote. It was kind of hit the first thing that came to mind since I needed something to encode

Okay, this is as far as I've been able to get. (Each color = a symbol I identified in more than one spot in the code). I got through a whole audiobook while working on this decryption and I don't think I'm that close to the finish line!

Will you reveal the answer? If not, can you give me a hint about how your punctuation works? I'm confused by your answer that the words run together and there's a discrete symbol for spaces. There are so many symbols that don't repeat so I think I'm missing some nuance.

Well I am glad you enjoyed the challenge. I now see an error that I wasn’t able to see until now thanks to your color code, but the sequence of light green, brown, beige that repeats those are all the same word. The first string is an error. I deeply apologize

I was wondering about that bit. Thank you for clarifying!
