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 26 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““In his quoted admission, plaintiff seems to have been frank. He admits the obvious truth, demonstrated by the immediate result, that both could not maintain their speeds and proceed without collision. He did not admit, nor can he be construed as having admitted, that he should have perceived at the instant that collision was imminent.””
