David Sedaris Quote
I can manage in a restaurant, take a cab, and even make small talk with the driver. Do you have children? I ask. Will you take a vacation this year? Where to? When he turns it around, as Japanese cabdrivers are inclined to do, I tell him that I have three children, a big boy and two little girls. If Pimsleur included I am a middle-aged homosexual and thus make do with a niece I never see and a very small godson, I’d say that. In the meantime, I work with what I have.
