Film critic Roger Ebert used the quote as the title of his review of the movie Cloud Atlas. The phrase was even used by Indian gastroenterologist B.S. Ramakrishna to describe the disease tropical sprue. In popular culture, the phrase has come to be used as the set-up to many jokes, sometimes with the order of the words riddle, mystery and enigma changed. Typically, the third element of the phrase is changed to create a punch line, as on the TV show Seinfeld, when Jerry and Elaine described Newman as a mystery wrapped in a riddle... wrapped in a Twinkie.
