Sinclair LewisI was feeling rational and restless, which is horrible for watching movies
About This Quote
When you’re feeling rational and restless it is a terrible time to watch a movie. You can’t concentrate on the plot or any of the characters in the film. It’s just because you have a tendency to want to escape from reality and your current problems through fiction. This is a great example of when being rational and restless can ruin your life. When you are in this state, you will stop being productive and move toward the wrong choices, which will lead to negative outcomes.
