I found a very close quote from Peñalosa in a 2013 TEDCity 2.0 talk: https://www.ted.com/talks/enrique_penalosa_why_buses_represent_democracy_in_action (see 00:56). Also, a Colombian magazine has a very similar title from 2010: https://www.semana.com/nacion/articulo/una-ciudad-avanzada-no-pobres-pueden-moverse-carro-sino-incluso-ricos-utilizan-transporte-publico/125258-3.
