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 19 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

Wedel, 73 Cal.App.2d 86 [ 165 P.2d 971 ]; Pearsall v. Townsend, 7 Cal.App.2d 162 [ 45 P.2d 824 ].)”
