Crawl Space

by Matthew Sewell and Brad Wilber / Edited by Andy Kravis

This Sunday-sized puzzle was originally published as Week 113 on the Andy Kravis, Cruciverbalist at Law website, and we are delighted to share it with you on our pages! After completing the puzzle (spoiler), clicking here for an interview/discussion involving the constructors and editor. If you want to understand the pictorial hint to the right, and get some additional thoughts from your host, click here.

The puzzle has a visual element, which is best appreciated by working on a hard-copy printout. After you have filled in the answers, start clockwise from 101-Across, and connect the circles in an order that spells the source of the opening words. When you're back at the start, the resulting image completes the quotation.
