Answer Me This Riddle

[Hotfoottfox]

What is greater thean God and more evil then the Devil
The rich need it,
The poor have it,
and if you eat it you die.

What is it?

Nothing. Am I right?

I make you weak at the worst of all times,
I keep you safe, I keep you fine.
I make your hands sweat, and your heart go cold,
I visit the weak, but seldom the bold.
What am I?

Your fears. I've herd that one.

Voiceless it cries,
Wingless flutters,
Toothless bites,
Mouthless mutters.

What is it?

A father, a son, a father, and a son go out in a boat to fish. Each man catches one fish, but when they return to land they only have 3 fish. Why?

Easy, the man is father to both sons.

Or one of the sons is yet a man?

Round like a biscuit, deep like a cup, yet all the kings horses can't pull it up.

It's a hole.

[loophole92]

A nuclear warhead?
EDIT: DAMN too late, but at least I have the first original response.

I kill gods and the devil too;
No one is safe from me.
From prisoner to demi-god,
I've come a long way.
I use tools in a most ironic way,
destroying, not creating.
Who am I?

This will be hard

How far can a dog run into a forest?

Half way, then it's running out.

A chest with not lock nor hinge nor key yet withing me golden treasure be.

Your heart?

This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down.

If you know the answer shout it out, but only if you have one to put after.

The Hobbit much? Just saying...

A good 70% of these are from The Hobbit.

If you put this in a barrel it will make it lighter....?
(I think that one was on an episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark )

What has a head,a tail, is brown, and has no legs?




Each morning I appear
To lie at your feet,
All day I will follow
No matter how fast you run,
Yet I nearly perish
In the midday sun.

I THINK I've figures this one out. 4 can see that 2 and 3 have different coloured hats. If they had the same coloured hat then 4 would know the colour of his own hat.

If 3 could figure out that as 4 hasn't said he knows what colour hat he's got (assuming they're supposed to shout the answer) then 3 could deduce his hat is a different colour to 2s!

I'll be so pissed if that's not right, I wanted to be in bed by now but I NEEDED to work this thing out. =P

The Hobbit much? Just saying...

Noticed that myself how just about every riddle here is from that.

Pronounced as one letter,
And written with three,
Two letters there are,
And two only in me.
I'm double, I'm single,
I'm black, blue, and gray,
I'm read from both ends,
And the same either way.
What am I?

The word 'eye'

Here's one of my personal favourites -

I am the beginning of eternity, the end of time and space, the beginning of every end and the end of every place. What am I?

"you love me but hate to see me" what am i?

A long dead friend or relative?

i would be happy to see what i thought was a long dead relative so no. the answer is your blood.

I never said "what I think is" a long dead friend or relative. I sort of meant it in a zombie uprising kind of way. Also, who the hell loves their own blood? Be that the answer, I still prefer mine.
