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 27 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““We do not think that an actual severance from the common stock of the articles claimed as exempt before petition in bankruptcy filed is essential. In our judgment, the bankruptcy act clearly indicates to the contrary, w * * The act ihus clearly indicates that the severance in fact of exempt property from- the general estate is to be made by the trustee, not by the debtor, and the value of that so severed is to he determined in the first instance liy the trustee, not by the debtor. The bankruptcy law allows to debtors the exemptions provided by the law; hut the maimer in which the exemptions are to be claimed, set apart, and awarded is regulated by the bankruptcy act. The provision is wholesome, for much abuse of the beneficent law allowing exemptions might arise if, with respect to a general stock of goods, the debtor should be permitted to place upon selected articles his own estimate of value. It is sufficient, we think, if the debtor manifest by his petition in bankruptcy his claim of exemptions which the law allows him. This is a sufficient negative of an intention to waive them.””
3 later decisions quote this exact passage““Courts of bankruptcy arc not controlled as to the time or the manner in which claims for exemptions may be preferred in bankruptcy. The exemptions provided by the law of the state are allowed by the bankruptcy act, but the manner of claiming such exemptions, and of setting apart and awarding them, is regulated by the bankruptcy act.””
