Tropic Days – Edmund James Banfield – Tropikal Kitap

"'Are you not frequently idle?'

'Never, brother. When we are not engaged in our traffic we are engaged in our relaxations.'"
- Borrow.

On the smooth beaches and in the silent bush, where time is not regulated by formalities or shackled by conventions, there delicious lapses fag-ends of the day to be utilised in a dreamy mood which observes and accepts the happenings of Nature without disturbing the shyest of her manifestations or permitting the mind to dwell on any but the vaguest speculations.
