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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““In this conrt, however, where it is made to appear to the court that the plaintiff in error is probably insane and should not be tried, or judgment against him executed, the conrt will investigate and determine the question of sanity without a jury, and make such order as the dictates of humanity and the law require in the postponement of trial or judgment.” 124 Tenn. at 91 , 135 S.W. at 330.”
