A person. four legs=baby, a baby crawls on all fours, right? Two legs is the adult stage in life, when you are able to stand on two legs.The three legs is old age, because you walk with a cane, but still have two legs. there ya go!

The answer is man. The morning, afternoon and evening are the different stages of man's life - Morning is the infant stage when man crawls on both hands and feet. Afternoon is man's youth when it walk on its 2 legs and Evening represents the old age of man when man has to use a walking stick which is the third leg.

A baby crawls on all fours in the morning of its life. Then he learns to walk and stand tall on two legs. Then in his old age, he has to rely on a cane which makes the third leg.

That's the "Ridde of the Sphinx"! :)
It's a metaphor for the stages a human goes through in life. The "morning" refers to us as babies, in which we crawl on our hands and feet (i.e. 4 legs). The "afternoon" refers to us as adults, when we walk on 2 legs. The "evening" refers to us as old folks, when we use a cane to help us walk (i.e. 3 legs).
