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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“=376—Patentability—Xhiioii Use or Sale—“On Sale.” An offer to sell a new device, made to a prospective purchaser after the experimental stage has been passed, the invention reduced to practice, and the apparatus manufactured in its perfected form, is a placing “on sale” within the statute, and a valid patent for the device cannot be granted on an application filed more than two years thereafter. [Ed. Note.—For other cases, see Patents, Cent. Dig. §§ 92, 98; Dec. Dig.”
