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.

““* * * This court has held that where a jury believes that the defendant shot under the belief that he was about to be assaulted but that he acted too hastily and without due care, and was therefore not justified in taking life under the circumstances, he is guilty of manslaughter. Allison v. State, 74 Ark. 444 , [ 86 S. W. 409 ], Brooks v. State, 85 Ark. 376 , [ 108 S. W. 205 ].””
