“I lived [in Irvine], but I never felt totally accepted as one of these rich white suburban kids. I wasn't economically deprived like so many of my Chicano brothers and sisters, but I felt the tension and the rejection--and that's when I started getting into hip-hop, started break-dancing. `The Message,' `Rapper's Delight,' Run-DMC...that was what was happening around that time.”
Zack de la Rocha
“[Keanu was just one of the guys, according to Mills, staying in a crappy condo in suburban Oregon like everyone else during the shoot.] He never said in any way, 'I'm special' or 'I'm different,' ...

Cal DuBrock
“The fastest growing parts of Texas, at least in percentage terms, are suburban counties. Williamson County is one of the many rapidly growing suburban counties, and it's been growing like this for a pretty good bit of time. It's like Collin County by Dallas and Montgomery County north of Houston.”
Steve Murdock
“Suburban users as well as city users must share in the cost of the plan, so they also must share in the savings of the plan.”
Ceeon Quiett
“I don't see this being anything more than a highway for motor vehicles. It'll open up land for suburban development, and we'll be right back in the soup again with more traffic.”
