If a man keeps telling you he loves you, over and over, then something is wrong.If someone gets rich, I do not cheer for them. I weep for myself.The things you love are as stupid as the things you hate and are easily interchangeable.Don't look at what he is not. Look at what he is.I see more of what is going on around me because I am not concerned with finding a parking place., If a man keeps telling you he loves you, over and over, then something is wrong.

Synopsis
Hail a taxi cab, open the door to a burst of easy listening music, breathe in the poppy air freshener, lean over the seat, and say hello to the next Jean Paul Sartre or Kahlil Gibran. Taxi Driver Wisdom takes readers behind the Plexiglass curtain with pearls of wisdom from the most multicultural, multiethnic, multireligious group of philosophers ever assembled: New York Cab drivers. Atmospheric black and white photographs are paired with pithy quotes from downtown Descartes and freeway Foucaults-and bound with a faux leather cover just like the finest cab upholstery. Cheaper than an ashram and less of a hassle than Freudian analysis, Taxi Driver Wisdom is the shortest possible route to enlightenment. You may never want to take the bus again.

    Arrived faster than expected and was well packaged! Razor was accurately described in great working order and matched condition shown in the pictures. Gave it a cleaning then dropped a blade in for a shave. Performed perfectly with no issues. Great seller, would purchase from again in the future.

    I ordered these on Thursday and they were delivered on Monday so excellent timing of the shipping. They also were exactly as described and shown on the website. I also like the little round plastic carrier that came with them. I am very satisfied and plan to buy some more from this seller now that I have seen the quality of the item.

  • Don't judge the book by the cover...cover was good, book was not.

    Not much content. Nothing but quotes. Will donate it to the library.

  • Never had one of these cabbies.

    This is a book about quotes from cab drivers and I found it to be sometimes funny and interesting and othertimes just seemed to be quotes I have heard from time to time. I think it is worth a quick read if you can get it quick, just don't spend to much.
