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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

Vignaud, 1 Mart., N.S., 1, 8; Quine v. Mayes, 2 Rob. 510 ; Williams v. Clark, 11 La.Ann. 761 ; Simpson v. Hope, 23 La.Ann. 557 ; and Andrews v. Sheehy, 122 La. 464 , 47 So. 771 ."”
