Do not sue for divorce

Most people think that the ending is too sad, and love is no match for fate.

But I just don't think there could be a better ending, and Denis' passing made everything perfect.

Remember their argument that night? Remember when Denis said he wouldn't love Carren more because of a marriage contract? It's not that I don't love it, it's just that I don't want to be entangled.

All the feelings, after becoming entangled, will irreversibly lead to loss. lack of self. This is what Denis doesn't want.

In that promise to come back, although there is love, there is actually helplessness. I even believe that the plane crash was a relief to Denis' free soul.

Everything is just fine, please don't continue to ask questions.

Out of Africa quotes

  • Karen Blixen: If you say anything now... I'll believe it.

    [to Denys, immediately after they kiss in her tent]

  • Denys: [to Karen, whose horse has run away, leaving her at the mercy of an approaching lion] I wouldn't run. If you do, she'll think you're something good to eat.

    Karen Blixen: [staring at lion] Have you - Do you have a gun?

    Denys: She won't like the smell of you.

    Karen Blixen: Shoot - shoot it.

    Denys: She's had breakfast.

    Karen Blixen: Please shoot her.

    Denys: Well, let's give her a moment.

    Karen Blixen: [as lion comes closer] Oh my God, shoot her!

    [Lion approaches Karen then wanders off into brush]

    Karen Blixen: Just how much closer did you expect to let her come?

    Denys: A bit. It wanted to see if you'd run. That's how they decide. A lot like people that way.

    Karen Blixen: She almost had me for lunch!

    Denys: Well, it wasn't her fault, Baroness. She's a lion.

    Karen Blixen: Well, it wasn't mine.

    Denys: Doesn't that outfit come with a rifle?

    Karen Blixen: Ye-ah, uh.

    [looks around]

    Karen Blixen: On my saddle.

    Denys: Better keep it with you. Your horse isn't much of a shot.
