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 50 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““[I]t is certain that [§ 3093] would not control as against a statute which expressly provides the particular jurisdiction and venue as for a specific class of actions, as is done in the case of divorce proceedings. The Code contains a distinct and separate chapter upon the subject of divorce and alimony, which specifies the grounds upon which divorce may be granted, the mode of procedure, etc., and expressly provides, in section 3801, as to the particular courts and districts in which bills may be filed.””
