Extract

The pupose of this essay was to explore the question of why people are so hard to understand. The quote came from the book A RIVER RUNS THROUGH ITby NORMAN McCLAIN .
"It is always those we live with and love and should know who elude us."
After reading this quote over and over, I finally have an idea of what it means. The word elude, as found in Webster's New World Dictionary, means to avoid or escape either mentally or physically. This quote is talking about the mental aspect.
