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.
““Rights of the sort claimed by plaintiffs are servitudes, and may be extinguished ... by the act of the party. A servitude may be extinguished by renunciation of the.party entitled to it, either express or implied. . . . Any act wholly incompatible with the nature and exercise of the servitude is sufficient to extinguish it.””
