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.

A petitioner is, therefore, incompetent to pursue post-conviction proceedings only if he [or she] is unable either to manage his [or her] personal affairs or to understand his [or her] legal rights and liabilities.”
