How To Live Well Without Owning A Car
by Chris Balish, 2006

Quotes by LivableStreets Executive Director:

page 12: "I hear people talking about how they couldn't live without a car. Then a few conversations later, they'll complain that their job isn't paying enough and they don't have any money without seeing the connection. The money I've saved from being car-free has helped me fund things like bike trips to Ireland and visits to farms in Tuscany, Italy." -- Jeffrey Rosenblum

page 152: "Livable car-free means sometimes you have to plan! I know Americans want 24/7 access to everything, and that the concept of planning ahead is outrageous. But what people don't seem to understand is that not planning actually required them to spend so much more time, energy, and money on things hat actually make them less free in other ways. So a big challenge is to personally come to terms with planning ahead, being flexible, and occasionally being inconvenienced-- in order to access the big picture of overall more life freeedom" -- Jeffrey Rosenblum
