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 20 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“. . . in using the terms ‘insanity,’ and ‘mental irresponsibility,’ the legislature intended the same thing, that is, a mental condition because of which the accused was incapable of committing a crime because insane or mentally irresponsible. The trial court did not err in the construction placed by it upon appellant’s plea, and in refusing to recognize- any distinction between insanity and mental irresponsibility.””
