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 16 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It is our rule not to disturb the finding of the chancellor upon a question of fact where the evidence is conflicting, and upon consideration of the whole case the mind is left in such doubt that we cannot say with reasonable certainty that the chancellor erred in his conclusion.” Jones v. Tarry, 187 Ky. 700 , 220 S. W. 523 .”
