This is really tough.

I've solved about a third of the clues, but I don't have enough letters to guess the quotations, so have no idea how to treat the answers before entry.

Hint, anyone?

Thanks.

Same position I'm afraid. Can anyone help?

The answer that finally got me on track was 17 across - contains one of the more unusual letters . The 2 quotes have the same words but not in the same order.

I can't solve 17 though!

Unclued, do you want to do some answer swapping?

I've got 1, 14, 26, 30, 34 and 35 across and 1, 5, 9, 20, 29 and 31 down.

Demeter - 21D is spinose, 23D claret and 27D fisty. I have the word "beginning" in the quote but no more. Could one of the writers be A A Milne?

Hi Unclued,

I've now got the quotes:

"In my beginning is my end"
"In my end is my beginning"

Still struggling to make my clues fit according to this though.
