Quotes about elude, page 2
Affection is upwards.
I ignore who begs me.
I beg who ignores me.
I pursue who eludes.
I elude who pursues.
River flows onward.

At sunrise everything is luminous but not clear." It is those we live with and love and should know who elude us." You can love completely without complete understanding.

It is sadder to find the past again and find it inadequate to the present than it is to have it elude you and remain forever a harmonious conception of memory.

Good night, because we must
114
Good night, because we must,
How intricate the dust!
I would go, to know!
Oh incognito!
Saucy, Saucy Seraph
To elude me so!
Father! they won't tell me,
Won't you tell them to?

Crime is a fact of the human species, a fact of that species alone, but it is above all the secret aspect, impenetrable and hidden. Crime hides, and by far the most terrifying things are those which elude us.

But what you could perhaps do with in these days is a word of most sincere sympathy. Your movement is carried internally by so strong a truth and necessity that victory in one form or another cannot elude you for long.

A loving bird is a singing bird.
Don’t try to win her heart.
Instead, try to win her head.
Once she lost her head,
She slips down to your tread.
She might elude in dread
But furtively would give her heart.
A loving bird in a bush
Is worth a pet at hand.

This commitment to truth is something one senses more and more Americans yearning for, just as they are becoming more and more sophisticated at knowing when the truth is being obscured - an irony that seems to elude most of today's elected officials.
