Everyone wants to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.

About This Quote

“Everyone wants to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.” This is a great quote about life. It is true that some people want to ride in the limousine with you, while others would prefer to live in a car that doesn’t even have seat belts. I know this for a fact because my mother used to drive me around town in her 1990 Toyota Corolla. I was only 10 years old at the time, so she didn’t mind driving me around town in her car if it meant she didn’t have to get out of bed.

When I became of age, she bought a new car which did have seat belts. Of course, I don’t think my mother would like hearing this quote.
