The intention that naturally exists: ‘My intention is to get done with this commute.’ So I’ve just doomed myself to an hour of discomfort, because my intention will not be met until I get out of the car.

Sebastian Thrun
The whole point of bike-sharing is to give New Yorkers another way to commute. A lot of folks in Bay Ridge work in downtown Brooklyn or other parts of the borough. For them, it would make more sense to hop on a Citi Bike than to wait for a train or a bus.

I had an insanely long commute – New York to D.C. – when I worked at ‘National Geographic.’ I hate to waste time, so I spent my time by writing about my life on the premise that I might be able to pitch those as short essays to magazines. It wasn’t until later that I realized that I was writing a book.
Charles M. Blow
Email knocks me off my game. It’s just for the morning commute and end of the day. Some might think I’m slow to respond, but those who need to reach me know to send me a text during those hours.

Pablo Schreiber
I don’t have any contempt for the men who have to have jobs and have to commute and have to pay the mortgage and have to get their kids an education. To me, that’s the backbone of America, to coin a phrase.
Sloan Wilson

The idea for ‘Awakened’ came to me one night on my long commute home to Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. The subway station was empty and eerily quite, and I could barely see into the darkened tunnel ahead. The further I peered, the darker the tunnel became. I wondered what could live in there… or under there.

I work very regular hours, roughly 9 to 5:30. I think I have it much easier than a lot of parents.

I don’t have to commute, so I have much more time with my family.
Kazuo Ishiguro
The beauty of my job is I do all different kinds of film directing, not just surf films anymore. And I do stuff from commercials to short films to working on feature films, and none of it is based from where I live. It’s all based elsewhere, so I can live anywhere and commute to where I need to go.
