Anna Karenina2012

Dolly:
Kitty's coming by to see you. She's all grown-up, and a bit frightened of you — the belle of St. Petersburg society!

Anna:
Is that who I am? Dolly... Stiva has told me. [Dolly bursts into tears. Anna embraces her.] Dolly, I'm so sorry from the bottom of my heart.

Dolly:
I don't know what to do.

Anna:
I know, I know.

Dolly:
I can't bear to be with him. And he doesn't care, he's got what he wants.

Anna:
What he wants is you. He loves you, Dolly. You and the children are everything to him.

Dolly:
Are we? And there is room for a governess?

Anna:
That was shameful, disgraceful. But it was not love. It was the animal in man, not the soul. Stiva's remorse is from the soul.

Dolly:
What about me? Does his remorse make it easier for me?

Anna:
I know you are suffering. But, Dolly, you must tell me... is there enough love left in your heart... enough to forgive him?

Dolly:
When I think of them together, I can't forgive him, no!

Anna:
My poor lamb. So you'd rather accept your fate...

Dolly:
My fate? But I haven't done anything! It’s him who's—

Anna:
Do you love him, Dolly? [Dolly nods tearfully.] You love him, and he loves you, but you can't forgive, so your lives must continue like this forever, with both of you wretched.
