Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 16 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“.. . that the evidence in this case does not show that the acts and statements of the accused on this occasion were done willfully or maliciously, or with an intent to obstruct the officer in the discharge of his duty as such officer, and the evidence . . ., fails to show that the defendant in any manner delayed or obstructed the officer, or that he had any intention of obstructing the officer in the performance of his duty, or to in any manner vio late the law. . . . We do not wish to be understood as holding that to constitute an obstruction of the officer under the statute, there must be an actual or technical assault upon the officer; but there must be acts clearly indicating an intention on the part of the accused to prevent the officer from performing his duty, and to aid and assist the party whom he is seeking to arrest in avoiding such arrest. (Underscoring added.)”
