    Hardest Puzzle: Please Help

    This puzzle was impossible for me: XGNO LO QHKSY, JWR. XGNO OHY LO QHKSY, JWR.
    source: Unattributed.
    I had an idea but couldn't get JWR
    This puzzle is the hardest that I've ever seen.

        Montyb:

        Thank you. I actually got "When in doubt, ..." When not in doubt, ...". Given the structure of the puzzle, I had guessed that OHY was probably "not" and then that XGNO was probably "then", which lead to "When in doubt ...". However, I just couldn't think of what the last word JWR was, although now it seems obviously.

        Pickbleball: You are so right!

        Thank you all.
