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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"The Supreme Court has no jurisdiction of the proceeding. It is not appellate jurisdiction that is invoked, and the matter is not within the very limited original jurisdiction of this court. . . . A board of registrars is not one of the 'jurisdictions' which this court may control by original writs. And if it were, . . . it can never be 'necessary' for this court to control such board by any original writ, since whatever writs may under any circumstances be proper or necessary to be issued in superintendence and control of these boards may be and can only be issued by . . . the circuit courts or other courts of like jurisdiction."”
