Eludes Quotes

Whose secret presence, through creation's veins running quicksilver - like eludes your pains; taking all shapes from mah to mahi; and they change and perish all - but he remains Picture Quote #1

Wisdom eludes me yet, but foolishness I captured long ago and to this day it is my constant companion, though many people consider me wise Picture Quote #1

What is the student but a lover courting a fickle mistress who ever eludes his grasp? Picture Quote #1

You can go to the moon or walk under the sea, or anything else you like, but painting remains painting because it eludes such investigation. It remains there like a question. And it alone gives the answer Picture Quote #1

The past slips from our grasp. It leaves us only scattered things. The bond that united them eludes us. Our imagination usually fills in the void by making use of preconceived theories... Archaeology, then, does not supply us with certitudes, but rather with vague hypotheses. And in the shade of these hypotheses some artists are content to dream, considering them less as scientific facts than as sources of inspiration Picture Quote #1

Attraction eludes control so stubbornly that whole societies designed to organize relationships among people cannot keep order, not even when they bind people to one another from childhood and raise them together Picture Quote #1

It is the familiar that usually eludes us in life. What is before our nose is what we see last Picture Quote #1

Success on a cosmic level completely eludes me. I’m deeply suspicious of things being too good. It’s part of my superstition, I think, to generate pain in order to give the illusion of gain. I’m not saying I reject success, but honestly, I don’t quite know how to deal with it. It’s an old feeling: As soon as you have the thing you’ve been going after all your life, that reasonable degree of security, you start kicking against it, doubting it Picture Quote #1

It is an absolutely vain endeavor to attempt to reconstruct or even comprehend the nature of a human being by simply knowing the forces which have acted upon him. However deeply we should like to penetrate, however close we seem to be drawing to truth, one unknown quantity eludes us: man’s primordial energy, his original self, that personality which was given him with the gift of life itself. On it rests man’s true freedom; it alone determines his real character Picture Quote #1

... the globalization that characterizes today’s economics goes beyond or eludes the sovereignty of individual states, and thus the power of their rulers. It is not they, but rather financial groups in control of vast amounts of capital, who decide upon their vertiginous passage through nations, without taking into account the serious crises they might generate Picture Quote #1

If you consider an unsuccessful hunt to be a waste of time, then the true meaning of the chase eludes you all together Picture Quote #1

The proper timing of an attacking plan is a difficult matter which places great strain on a player’s nerves. Mastery of this art is required for success in the international arena, but perfect mastery eludes even the very best chessplayers! Picture Quote #1

The stories we sit up late to hear are love stories. It seems that we cannot know enough about this riddle of our lives. We go back and back to the same scenes, the same words, trying to scrape out the meaning. Nothing could be more familiar than love. Nothing else eludes us so completely Picture Quote #1
