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 16 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““In connection with question No. 19 of the special verdict, the court in effect instructed the jury that the conduct of the officers and agents of a corporation in respect to the payment of a salary to the president for his official services would bind it under the same circumstances as an individual. As we have shown above, this is not the rule between a corporation and its stockholders and directors, when they act as its officers.””
