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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Counsel contend that this receipt is not in form such as required by the statute. If this were true, it would ill become appellant to try to take advantage of it. The statute required ■him to give the receipt, and prescribed its form. If, then, the paper given by him was in acknowledgment of wheat received by him for storage in his warehouse, as indeed it shows on its face, and if the paper so given as a receipt should fail in any particidar to conform to the requirements of the statute, that would be rather an aggravation of appellant’s wrong than an excuse for it. He ought to have given his receipt as required by the statute, and should not be heard to complain of his own fault in the matter.””
