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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Under the admiralty law, this becomes a lien upon the vessel in his favor. The Osceola, 189 U.S. [158] 175, 23 S.Ct. 483 , 47 L.Ed. 760 ; Hansen v. U. S. (D.C.) 12 F.2d 321 ; The Bouker (C.C.A. [2 Cir.]) 241 F. 831 . “The relation of a seaman to his vessel creates a personal indenture, establishing rights for maintenance and cure in case of personal injury. It results in much liberalty of remedy, in order that he may not be defeated of such humanitarian purposes.””
