Karen Blixen
“The Cicada sing an endless song in the long grass, smells run along the earth and falling stars run over the sky, like tears over a cheek. You are the privileged person to whom everything is taken. The Kings of Tarshish shall bring gifts.”
Isak Dinesen, Out of Africa

“You know you are truly alive when you’re living among lions.”

“Perhaps he knew, as I did not, that the Earth was made round so that we would not see too far down the road.”
Isak Dinesen, Out of Africa

“There are things which cannot be carried through even with the good will of everybody concerned”
Karen Blixen, Out of Africa

Karen Blixen
“It is a sad hardship and slavery to people who live in towns, that in their movements they know of one dimension only; they walk along the line as if they were led on a string. The transition from the line to the plane into the two dimensions, when you wander across a field or through a wood, is a splendid liberation to the slaves, like the French Revolution. But in the air you are taken into the full freedom of the three dimensions; after long ages of exile and dreams the homesick heart throws itself into the arms of space.”
Karen Blixen, Out of Africa
