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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The purpose, doubtless, was that, when legislation was proposed the wisdom of which was in so much doubt as to meet with the veto of the mayor, before it could become a law it should receive the vote of two-thirds of all the aldermen, when all the wards of the city were fully represented in the council.” (Supra, p. 1032)”
1 later decision quote this exact passage““That after the veto of any ordinance, resolution or proceeding, the common council shall proceed to reconsider the vote by which the same was passed, and after such reconsideration two-thirds of all the members elected of the common council shall be necessary to pass or adopt the same.””
