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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[T]he constitutional right of a jury trial should not be taken from a party lightly. Bearing in mind that the waiver clause in leases is of the landlord's creation it seems to me that no undue burden is put on the landlord in requiring him to invoke the waiver in the early stages of a litigation. If he remains inert, as the defendant did in this case, no equity in his favor calls for help from the court.”
