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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The judgment sustaining the plea of res judicata is correct, because the suit was between the same parties, was for the same relief, and on the same cause of action, as in the suit in which the court had rendered a judgment rejecting the demand of the plaintiffs, and the judgment had become final. Whether that judgment was correct or incorrect is a matter of no importance, because there was no appeal from it.””
