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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““While the bankruptcy act creates the office of trustee in bankruptcy, such trustee is a quasi officer of the court in a qualified sense. He is in reality elected by, and represents the creditors of, the bankrupt, under the provisions of the bankruptcy act. The bankruptcy court will protect the trustee in the discharge of his quasi official duties; but as the representative of the creditors his duties as such representative must be discharged, not as an officer of the court, strictly speaking, but as provided in the bankruptcy act.””
