Quotation from: Nostromo: A Tale of the Seaboard

Written by: Joseph Conrad


"The Spanish race, sir, is prolific of remarkable characters in every
rank of life. . . . I propose we go now into the billiard-room, which is
cool, for a quiet chat. There's never anybody there till after five.
I could tell you episodes of the Separationist revolution that would
astonish you. When the great heat's over, we'll take a turn on the
Alameda."


The programme went on relentless, like a law of Nature. The turn on the
Alameda was taken with slow steps and stately remarks.
