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 34 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Louisiana is an agricultural state, and its prosperity largely depends upon agriculture. To enable the farmer to make his crop, the privilege of the furnisher of supplies must be recognized and must be adequately protected. This protection is assured by the enforcement of the privilege upon the crop, or, if sold, upon the proceeds thereof, and by charging the purchaser from the planter with knowledge that that crop is bought subject to any liens that may be upon it at the time of the purchase. As long as the agricultural product remains in the hand of the farmer or planter, it Í3 a crop and nothing else; but when his vendee parts with ownership the agricultural product can no longer be considered a crop, it has become merchandise; hence it necessarily follows that the lien is gone”
