Bus Quotes

It’s rare that you have a policy issue that can be solved by throwing more money at the problem, but the technology to make bus service more frequent and equip buses with GPS systems that provide real-time schedule updates to bus stops exists and operates in many parts of the world. We should be installing it in our major cities Picture Quote #1

In Toronto, I grew up taking a subway, I grew up taking a bus. I spent my formative adult years in New York City, walking the streets, taking the subway. You’re connected to the larger whole. L.A. is so spread out, and you’re so incubated inside those cars and it’s so exhausting to deal with the traffic, without really having the human contact Picture Quote #1

I grew up, as I joke around, in the ‘People’s Republic of Charlestown’ in the city of Boston. And I was blessed to be raised right there on Monument Square in Charlestown, and every morning I’d hop on the bus and go on a 45-minute ride out to the suburbs in Brooklyn for elementary school. And I got to have my seat, really, in both worlds Picture Quote #1

Rosa Parks was primed, she had the Civil Rights Movement behind her, she didn’t just decide to sit on the bus, it was strategic Picture Quote #1

I used to work at my dad’s peanut mill, and worked 15 hours a day, 6 days a week. So, now, riding around on a nice tour bus and doing shows, you’d have to get picky to have a downside Picture Quote #1

It just seems OK these days to throw women under the bus. Like we’re a bargaining chip Picture Quote #1

When you live with someone on the bus, for four days a week, you really have to get along Picture Quote #1

I was very young, and I kind of decided I wanted to do comedy. My parents were musicians, so we traveled on a tour bus. You’re in a different town every night; as a kid, you’re trying to make friends fast. You try to be funny Picture Quote #1

When you’re walking onto a bus and trying to get there before the person in front of you, that’s a different level of competition than playing in front of 80,000 people Picture Quote #1

I think many years ago I got on a bus in L.A. and drove around to see the stars’ homes, but that’s the extent of my direct experience in Hollywood Picture Quote #1

At 14, I was the most disciplined guy around. I would get up at 5 o’clock in the morning and run five miles, and then go to school. Sometimes I would run behind the school bus, and the kids thought I was just crazy. I knew what I wanted Picture Quote #1

You can’t get there by bus, only by hard work and risk and by not quite knowing what you’re doing. What you’ll discover will be wonderful. What you’ll discover will be yourself Picture Quote #1

I used to dream of some kind of way that you could carry a phone with you - but I never thought I would see it in my lifetime. It doesn’t matter nowadays if you are caught in traffic or got lost on the way somewhere. You can just send a text and the recipient will know that you haven’t fallen under a bus Picture Quote #1

Once I’m at the arena with the guys in the dressing room, and in the bus, and on the plane, I’m a player. And I sit in the back with the players and I play cards and try to take their money Picture Quote #1

The main point is first get the right people on the bus (and wrong people off the bus) before you figure out where to drive it. The second key point is the degree of sheer rigor in people decisions in order to take a company from Good to Great Picture Quote #1

I’m grateful for a lot of things. One is not being a drunk wreck. Or losing all four limbs in some ridiculous East Village bus accident that I was so destined for Picture Quote #1

My usual day is I get up around 11 o’clock and do yoga and then eat afterwards. Then I have sound check and play soccer and do running with the guys in the band after sound check, and then do the show and eat dinner after the show and usually get to bed around 3 o’clock by the time we get everybody on the bus and get rolling Picture Quote #1

By 1990 I went back to no gasoline; I was just riding around on my bike, taking the bus. I had a tiny little electric car that didn’t go very far or very fast. People thought I’d lost my mind. Even my own family thought I’d lost my mind Picture Quote #1

Bus stops are far more interesting and useful places to have art than in museums, Picture Quote #1

My hat’s off to documentary filmmakers. I don’t know if I’m ever going back to it. You’re treated like a second-class citizen at most film festivals.

If you’re a feature film director, you’re put in a five-star hotel, and if you’re a documentary director, you stay in a Motel 6 Picture Quote #1

If you’ve got a huge Hollywood star in your film, they’re getting $32 million, and everyone else gets their bus fare Picture Quote #1

My first interview at SI, I sat in silence next to Guy LaFleur for five minutes on the New York Rangers team bus until he finally broke the ice. Those early interviews, every one of them was like a terrible first date Picture Quote #1
