Whoever possesses these three things, he is of the disciples of Abraham, our father; and [whoever possesses] three other things, he is of the disciples of Bil'am, the wicked. The disciples of Abraham, our father, [possess] a good eye, an humble spirit and a lowly soul. The disciples of Bil'am, the wicked, [possess] an evil eye, a haughty spirit and an over-ambitious soul. (Avot 5:19)

Let's reset the conversation.
"So nu, how did it go?"
"First of all, I admire how made the effort to travel all the way from Lakewood to Brooklyn and back without complaint. He was kind enough to drive me home but couldn't find a parking place. I saw he was waiting to make sure I got into the house but had to leave before I got safely in the house as the drive in the car behind him was honking impatiently....."
