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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It occurs to us that when a person receives a blow which fractures his jaw bone, that is rather a serious injury. Such an injury cannot be regarded as a trivial one since it may give rise to apprehension of danger to health. Whether or not it was a serious bodily injury was a question of fact for the jury, and we would not be authorized to interfere with the verdict of the jury unless it appeared from the evidence that the injury was not serious.””
