Charles Dickens Quotes:
Ocupation: Writer
Life: February 7, 1812 - June 9, 1870
Birthday: February 7
Death: June 9
The sky was dark and gloomy, the air was damp and raw, the streets were wet and sloppy. The smoke hung sluggishly above the chimney-tops as if it lacked the courage to rise, and the rain came slowly and doggedly down, as if it had not even the spirit to pour.
