The year the bus drivers went on strike in Pittsburgh, I was twenty-three and living on the edge of the city in a neighborhood that was on the verge of becoming a ghetto. I had just been fired from a good job as a cartographer in a design studio where I had worked for about four months. (Neighborhood Quotes)

I come to Washington Heights for real Dominican food that reminds me of my hometown, and it’s a great place to visit. (Neighborhood Quotes)
Hate crimes impact not just individuals but entire communities. When a family is attacked because of the color of their skin, it’s not just the family that feels violated, but every resident of that neighborhood. (Neighborhood Quotes)
Is Israel going to continue to be ‘Fortress Israel’? Or, as we all hope, become accepted into the neighborhood, which I believe is the only way we can move forward in harmony. (Neighborhood Quotes)

When you see Major League Baseball putting academies in other countries, obviously that throws up a red flag. You wonder why they ain’t going up in our neighborhood. Bottom line, what I see, I talk about... I see it over and over. If anybody can show me I’m wrong, then show me. (Neighborhood Quotes)
I remember living in a pretty small neighborhood where you could play in the streets and run around like crazy. My friends and I would ride our bikes around, but instead of just riding our bikes, we were solving crimes and going out in the woods to see what lay out there. (Neighborhood Quotes)
When I was younger, living in an all-black neighborhood the other kids thought I was better than them because of my light skin and straight hair. Then we moved to an all-white neighborhood and that was a culture shock ... I’d been used to being around all black kids. (Neighborhood Quotes)

Walk to work, even if it’s four miles. Ride a bike to work. Drive a different way. On your way there, try to find beauty. You’d be surprised how much more of the neighborhood you can perceive and experience when you’re looking for unique spots of beauty. (Neighborhood Quotes)
When you run a business, your business is totally different from others. This means your lifestyle, your routine and what you make out of your business is totally different.

In Manhattan, and its true on some level till this day; its a whole different mentality from the Bronx, Brooklyn and Queens, which I didn’t know at the time - because you basically just know your neighborhood. (Neighborhood Quotes)
I never really thought of my neighborhood in South Philly as being a neighborhood; it was more a state of mind. For people who aren’t familiar with those kinds of places, it’s a whole different thing. Like, 42nd Street in New York City is a state of mind. (Neighborhood Quotes)
My office doubles as a karaoke den for the neighborhood. There are strobe lights and Rock Band plastic guitars, a disco ball and a fog machine and some other things. I have a really long work day, and you might find me doing karaoke by myself late at night. (Neighborhood Quotes)
My natural instinct after doing something shameful is not to rush into the street boasting about it but to put on dark glasses and head for the next county, hoping nobody notices I’ve been in the neighborhood. (Neighborhood Quotes)

As I turned around the car hit me, dragged me five houses down the road, and I fractured my collarbone. (Neighborhood Quotes)
When you have a small town where all of a sudden there’s 3,000 black people living in a neighborhood where there were never black people before, that’s a dramatic change. I’m not sure how much the people in the north are acknowledging that this is a permanent phenomenon, that it is going to change the social fabric. (Neighborhood Quotes)
The parents of teenagers would love to have a car that won’t go very far or go very fast. They could just cruise around the neighborhood, drive it to school, see their friends, plug it in overnight. (Neighborhood Quotes)
If you’re driving more than 50 mph through a neighborhood where the speed limit is 25 mph, I question whether you should keep your driver’s license. You’re a menace to society. (Neighborhood Quotes)
