Space Taxi is a computer game for the Commodore 64. It was written by John Kutcher and published by MUSE Software in 1984.
The game is famous for featuring sampled speech uncommon in the early 1980s. The speech samples include "Hey taxi!", "Pad one please" (and similar samples for different pads), "Thanks" and "Up please". These are said in a variety of voice pitches, creating the feeling of different taxi customers.

Famous quotes containing the words space and/or taxi:
“No being exists or can exist which is not related to space in some way. God is everywhere, created minds are somewhere, and body is in the space that it occupies; and whatever is neither everywhere nor anywhere does not exist. And hence it follows that space is an effect arising from the first existence of being, because when any being is postulated, space is postulated.”
—Isaac Newton (1642–1727)
“I have done almost every human activity inside a taxi which does not require main drainage.”
—Alan Brien (b. 1925)
