Karen Blixen Quotes

“We can only go to the limits of ourselves. Anything more and we give too much away. Then we're not good for anyone.”
― Paula McLain, Circling the Sun

“Why the Kikuyu, who personally have so little fear of death, should be so terrified to touch a corpse, while the white people, who are afraid to die, handle the dead easily, I do not know. Here once more you feel their reality to be different from our realities.”
― Karen Blixen, Out of Africa
