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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The next ground upon which it is insisted that the conviction in this ease was illegal is that, if the act in question is construed to prohibit minors from having about the person a pistol or revolver, this construction would be in violation of ... the Constitution of Georgia.... [But] there are some rights which may be exercised by adults without harm to the state, but the same rights exercised by minors might injuriously affect in some way the public health, public safety, or public morality. Unquestionably, the possession of a pistol or revolver by a minor constitutes a menace to the peace of the public, and to the safety of the individuals constituting the public. 6”
