Missouri
- The loop that consists of Interstates (70/35/29/670) and US 24/40/71/169 in Kansas City. In this loop there are twenty-three exits, labeled exits 2A to 2Y. Staying on 70 if one comes east from Kansas requires being in the left lane as several highways splice off to the right and then a hard merge to the right as several lanes enter from the left, and only the rightmost remains 70.

Famous quotes containing the word missouri:
“The traveller on the prarie is naturally a hunter, on the head waters of the Missouri and Columbia a trapper, and at the Falls of St. Mary a fisherman.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Slavery is founded in the selfishness of man’s nature—opposition to it, is [in?] his love of justice.... Repeal the Missouri compromise—repeal all compromises—repeal the declaration of independence—repeal all past history, you still can not repeal human nature. It still will be the abundance of man’s heart, that slavery extension is wrong; and out of the abundance of his heart, his mouth will continue to speak.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“Then they seen it, the old Missouri River shinin’ in the moon and across it the lights of St. Louis.”
—Dudley Nichols (1895–1960)
