Mosaic quote

← Knight’s tour quote
Piecemeal shapes →

Arrange the 2 x 2 blocks of letters like mosaic tiles to form a rectangular array, then read the quote in the normal left-to-right, top-to-bottom order. The [rows × columns] configuration of the mosaic follows the enumeration. Example:

MOSAIC PROVERB (4 3 6 4 3 4) [2 rows × 3 columns]
 
AN IN OW → SL OW AN
AD RA TE → DS TE AD
 
SL ST YW → YW IN ST
DS CE HE → HE RA CE

Answer: Slow and steady wins the race. Mosaic quotes are limited to 100 letters.

The mosaic quote was invented by 769 and introduced in February 2001.
