Additional quotes by Karen Blixen

Nemcsak a földjüket vesszük el azoktól, akiktől a szülőföldjüket elvesszük. A múltjukat is, a gyökerüket, identitásukat. Ha elvesszük tőlük azon dolgokat, amiknek látását megszokták s amiknek látására a jővőben is számítanak, nyugodtan elvehetjük a szemük világát is. Ez fokozottabban érvényes a primitív népekre, mint a civilizáltakra, mert az állat is visszavándorol messziről, számtalan veszélyen és szenvedésen át, hogy meglelje elvesztett identitását abban a környezetben, amelyet ismer.

"O poeta

"Para um campónio dinamarquês do seu tipo a ideia de acabar com a vida não custa a conceber.
A vida nunca lhes parece - nem é, de resto - uma grande maravilha, e o suicídio, seja por que forma for,é, digamos, a sua maneira natural de morrer.(...)
Ele sentira o destino comum dos seus iguais, que é ser, como se feitos de matéria essencialmente diferente do resto da humanidade, invisível para os outros.
