"The term flaneur exists only in French, describing a person who spends entire days wandering aimlessly with the express purpose of doing little more than taking in whatever he sees. A French man is never in danger of running too quickly past the roses to ever stop and smell them. A French man is forever lolling around in the rose bed, happily avoiding the rat race and concentrating on the serious business of simply being."
