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 89 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It is as often employed to signify the putting or fixing on a firm basis, of putting in a settled or an efficient state or condition, . . .” (See: Armstrong v. George, 84 Kan. 248, 251 , and State ex rel., v. Board of Education, 111 Kan. 598, 600 .)”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““All the purposes of the present act could doubtless have been accomplished by an act strictly and in form amendatory — by setting out the existing statutes, amending and re-enacting them, but it is obvious the amendatory act would have been cumbersome, and not more intelligible than is the present act. Whether an amendatory act, or an original act should be employed, was matter of legislative judgment and discretion, which the courts cannot control.””
