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 18 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The court, in trade-mark cases, proceeds on the ground that the plaintiff has a valuable interest /in the good will of his trade or business, and that, having appropriated to himself a particular label, sign, or trade-mark indicating that the article is manufactured or sold by him under his authority, he is entitled to protection against any one who attempts to pirate upon the good will of his friends, customers, or patrons of trade by sailing under his flag without his authority.””
