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.

“"An opportunity to be heard and to defend are essential elements of a fair hearing and of due process. Due process of law means in the due course of legal proceedings and according to the rules and forms which have been established for the protection of private rights and refers to a law which hears before it condemns, and which proceeds upon inquiry and renders judgment only after trial."”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage“"* * * `Misconduct' is a word of general usage and is not defined in the statute itself. Resort, must, therefore, be made to the generally accepted definitions, such as wrongful, improper or unlawful conduct, motivated by premeditated, obstinate, or intentional purpose. Misconduct, within the meaning of the Unemployment Compensation Act, excluding from its benefits an employee discharged for misconduct, must be an act of wanton or willful disregard of the employer's interests, a deliberate violation of the employer's rules, and a disregard of standards of behavior which the employer has a right to expect of his employees. 48 Am.Jur, p. 541, `Social Security, Unemployment Insurance and Retirement Funds', § 38; 81 C.J.S. Social Security and Public Welfare § 162, pp. 245-247. In determining, however, what constitutes misconduct, the standard to be applied is that of the employment contract, expressed or implied, which fixes the worker's duties in connection with his work, viewed in the light of the employer's duties, responsibilities, and obligations to the employee. Without question loyalty, consideration and cooperation are due by the employee to the employerthe laborer should be worthy of his hire. * * *"”
