Quotes about doorman (9 Quotes)

I like going downstairs and saying hello to the doorman next door.

    Years ago, I had a wonderful relationship with the doorman in my building, who would always stop and talk to me after I came in from the opera.

When I gave them to him, he looked completely confused -- and our relationship was never the same afterward.
