Most-quoted passages

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.

To me, at least, this seems so likely to occur that infringement of complainants’ trade-mark seems obvious.””
