"Hate-on-the-highway is an institution occupying a high place……" — H. Allen Smith

"Hate-on-the-highway is an institution occupying a high place in our modern civilization....The godawful glares that drivers exchange as they pass each other, the mutual hatred between motorist and pedestrian, these manifestations seem to constitute the ultimate in righteous wrath."

— H. Allen Smith
