Riddle me this:

Greater than a god am I,
More evil than the devil am I,
The rich man wants me
The poor man has me
The wise man does not know me.

What am I?

Nothing.

Nothing is greater than God, nothing is more evil than the devil itself, the rich need nothing and the poor have nothing.

Very good. Nice work, getting it on the first try.

Would you like another one?

[clockmaster]

Thanks. I won't be very good at my job if I couldn't figure out riddles too. They're entertaining.

Please.

[vengeful_virtue]

That they are, indeed.

I didn't know you were into riddles, V. But I believe Hakuba already answered this one. Do you have more?

[vengeful_virtue]

I have quite a few, I'm afraid. Let us see...

There are four brothers in this world that were all born together. The first runs and never wearies. The second eats and is never full. The third drinks and is always thirsty. The fourth sings a song that is never good.

Who are they?

[gonnabe1st]

The four elements? Water, fire, earth and air, respectively.

[vengeful_virtue]

Very good. You are correct.

[8fingerswhiskey]

Nothing?

Nothing, right?

[vengeful_virtue]

You are correct. Nothing is the answer.

[follow_the_fool]

That's a good one.

[vengeful_virtue]

Thank you. I like that particular one.
