Sinclair Lewis Quotes:
Ocupation: Novelist
Life: February 7, 1885 - January 10, 1951
Birthday: February 7
Death: January 10
If there is anything worse than the aching tedium of staring out of car windows, it is the irritation of getting tickets, packing, finding trains, lying in bouncing berths, washing without water, digging out passports, and fighting through customs. To live in Carlsbad is seemly and to loaf at San Remo healing to the soul, but to get from Carlsbad to San Remo is of the devil.
