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 52 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. ““ * * * The executive clemency under it is extended upon the conditions named in it, and he accepts it upon those conditions. One of these is that the Governor may withdraw his grace in a certain contingency, and another is that the Governor shall himself determine when that contingency has arisen. It is as if the convict, with full competency to bind himself in the premises, had expressly contracted and agreed that, whenever the Governor should conclude that he had violated the conditions of his parole, an executive order for his arrest and remandment to prison should be at once issued, and be conclusive upon him. * * * ””
