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.
““Without an appearance on the part of the defendant, no order can be made which will apply to the bankrupt in person. It can only proceed as a proceeding against the property of the bankrupt, if any, within the jurisdiction of the court and which can come into the possession of the trustee.””
