I am the center of gravity, hold a capital situation in Vienna, and as I am foremost in every victory, am allowed by all to be invaluable.
Though I am invisible, I am clearly seen in the midst of a river.
I could name three who are in love with me and have three associates in vice.
It is vain that you seek me for I have long been in heaven yet even now lie embalmed in the grave.
What am I?
 
allright this is not really a riddle, more like a brain teaser.....i hope this is okay,

a man is on an island, he cannot swim, has no boat , communication or plane or anything! but he managers to get back on the main land, how does he do so?
 
needs an update...... Here's one to suit the theme:

I am the ruler of shovels
I have a double
I am as thin as a knife
I have a wife
What am I?

Here's another.

I cut through evil like a double edged sword, And chaos flees at my approach. Balance I single-handedly upraise, Through battles fought with heart and mind, Instead of with my gaze. What am I?
 
yes at Pras...

LOL.....@ Gene:

The "balance" and "evil" give it away. It's like..equality..or justice...or something like that
 
I am obsessed with double posting I suppose:

Here's all the ones from the prequel to my favorite book:



What has roots as nobody sees,
Is taller than trees,
Up, up it goes
And yet it never grows.



Thirty white horses on a red hill,
First they champ,
Then they stamp,
Then they stand still.



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



An eye in a blue face
Saw an eye in a green face.
"That eye is like to this eye"
Said the first eye,
"But in low place,
Not in high place."



It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,
Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt.
It lies behind stars and under hills,
And empty holes it fills.
It comes first and follows after,
Ends life, kills laughter.



A box without hinges, key, or lid,
Yet golden treasure inside is hid.



Alive without breath,
As cold as death;
Never thirsty, ever drinking,
All in mail never clinking.



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