Geocache Description:

Cache # 149.

The starting coordinates are false.

The beautiful Murmungee Basin is an area I enjoy driving through and it looks lovely in all seasons.  Time to encourage more visitors and what better way than to put some caches here?

Time for some fun....... a nice easy puzzle for you......


For this puzzle you will need to work out who said each saying and find their years of birth and death.

From there the coordinates should be easy to work out.  Good luck!
