When I looked about, and saw how everything was put in order, how pleasantly concealed I was, and how safe from danger, it made me very loth to remove.
In the meantime, it occurred to me that it would require a vast deal of time for
me to do this, and that I must be contented to run the venture where I was, till
had formed a camp for myself, and had secured it so as to remove to it. So with
this resolution I composed myself for a time, and resolved that I would go to
work with all speed to build me a wall with piles and cables, etc., in a circle as
before, and set my tent up in it when it was finished; but that I would venture to
stay where I was till it was finished and fit to remove to."
--Daniel Defoe, The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe
In this passage, Crusoe considers the time it will take him to build his home.
How does he seem to feel about his plans for the future? What does that tell you
about his character?
