If you were to break down Churchill's famous quote, you would see this:

Riddle, Mystery, Enigma.  These three words are key.  They are all connected.  What is the connection --- these words describe a secretive and mysterious meaning.  The best way to understand a puzzling quote like this is to break it down, and define each and every word; Forming a more understandable explanation.

Basically Churchill means to say "I don't know much about what Russia's gonna do"

Mysteries, riddles, and enigmas are all synonymous with "unknown".

So there's no telling what Russia's gonna do... trying to figure out what they're gonna do is like trying to answer an impossible question.

Something fun but you still have to right 3 paragraphs

Today is going to be a great day. I'm so excited, my first birthday getting to travel. I know I will miss Ireland, but I am definitely excited about going to the United States.
I'm having a real hard time deciding what I want to buy, I have a $10 coin to spend but I just can't make my mind up. Do I want candy, maybe a kite, this just hasn't been an easy decision.
I think when we make it to the United States I will find something new and interesting there. I think it will be good to get involved in new things, it might help me to forget about being so said about Ireland.
My mom tells me it will be much different where we are going, her excitement is what ignites mine, I don't think I could do this without her. Great things are sure to come, and it's all on my birthday, what a day.

---I Tried:( I don't think I got the wording right considering it was meant to be 1892.
