Sentences with DELUDING (5)

But what have been thy answers? what but dark, Ambiguous, and with double sense deluding, Which they who asked have seldom understood, And, not well understood, as good not known?

The shock I've been feeling begins to give way to fury. "I want to tell people that if you think for one second the Capitol will treat us fairly if there's a cease-fire, you're deluding yourself.

Suzanne Collins Mockingjay
We cannot achieve personal enlightenment — a clarification of our souls — until we cease deluding ourselves. We must accept that life includes witnessing and personally experiencing pain.
Kilroy J. Oldster Dead Toad Scrolls
Whenever a man can get hold of numbers, they are invaluable: if correct, they assist in informing his own mind, but they are still more useful in deluding the minds of others. Numbers are the masters of the weak, but the slaves of the strong.
