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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Both our Supreme Court and this Court have, in many cases, stated the rule that the question of contributory negligence is one of fact for the jury to determine when the evidence on point is in dispute, or is conflicting, or is such that reasonable men could fairly draw different' inferences from undisputed facts. It is only in cases where the facts are undisputed and but a single inference can be drawn therefrom that this Court can say, as a matter of law, that the course of conduct shown constitutes contributory negligence.” (citations omitted)”
