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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"[W]here permission to enter a private dwelling is obtained by means of deception, the defendant is entering or remaining unlawfully. To hold otherwise would be to conclude that a masquerade (whether as good samaritan or as a governmental or utility official) which succeeds in gaining entrance to a home also succeeds in precluding a charge of burglary. It is incredible that the legislature meant to so reward artifice."”
