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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Had the method' been adopted merely to ascertain what each juror considered reasonable, and each juror reserved to himself the right to afterwards object, should -he think it unreasonable, an honest expression of opinion free from' hazard, chance, or lot might afterwards be obtained, and in such, a case the verdict should stand. But a verdict reached pursuant to an agreement of all the jurors, made prior to aggregating the several amounts, and dividing the same by 12, is the result of chance and self-imposed coercion, foreclosing deliberation and interchange of views.””
