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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[The landlord] thought [the tenant] had better leave because he could not carry on the place, and [the tenant] said: “All right, if you think I cannot, that is enough.” In substance this is the entire basis for a claim of eviction and [the tenant] closes his testimony on the subject with this question and answer: “Q. You moved off the place simply because [the landlord] told you he didn’t want you to stay there any longer? A. Yes, sir; I did.” This does not show an eviction, but, taken in connection with the acceptance and resumption of possession by the landlord, it does show a voluntary surrender.”
