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

2 later decisions quote this exact passage““That a public officer, either de jure or de facto, in possession of an office, is entitled to an injunction to restrain one who disputes his right to it or any one else from interfering with him in the discharge of his official duties, is too well settled to require discussion.””
