Question

This is a generic version of the riddle but still hits it....lets see who knows....

sweet glad to know people knew this...figured maybe one or two...then again the rest at the bottom could be copyin'....kudos!

Answer 1

A human. 4 legs as an infant (morning) 2 legs as a toddler through middle age (afternoon) and 3 legs as a senior - night (one leg is a cane.)
Very easy one.

Answer 2

Man
4 legs - A baby crawling!

2 Legs - A person walking upright

3 Legs - walking with a cane

The morning, afternoon and evening are metaphors for the stages of life

Answer 3

The Sphinx riddle. It's Man - crawls as a baby on all fours, as an adult walks upright (2 legs) and in old age needs a stick to walk which makes 3 legs.

Answer 4

Man. As a baby, or in the "morning" of your life, you crawl on 4 legs, in the middle, you walk on two legs, and as an older person, in the "night " of life, you walk with the help of a cane, three legs. That's the sphynx's riddle, right?

Answer 5

Man. In the beginning of his life (morning), he crawls...using "4 legs". In his middle-ages (afternoon) he walks on 2 legs. At the last stage of his life (night), he uses a cane to walk, giving him "3 legs."

Answer 6

According to one version of the Necronomicon, this refers to all men. When the Great Old Ones first created Man, he was apelike and used his long arms as two more legs. Modern man walks on two legs. In the far future, that which was Man will walk on three legs. I guess that means both male and female, although where the female will get the third leg is not explained.

Answer 7

A human. "Morning" refers back to the human as a newborn (2 legs and a pair of arms), "afternoon" refers back to the human as an grownup (2 ft), and "nighttime" refers back to the human interior the extra elderly stages of life, the place a human might want a cane so as that she or he's able to stroll (2 legs and one million cane).

Answer 8

a human being. as a child crawled on on fours as an adult walked on two legs and in old age walked on two legs with the help of a cane which accounts for the number three.

Answer 9

This is the riddle of the sphinx which was answered by Oedipus...

The answer is Man (four legs = crawling as infant, two legs = adult, three legs = old age with a cane)
