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 68 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Ineffective assistance of counsel claims constitute mixed questions of law and fact which we review de novo. To prevail on an ineffective assistance of counsel claim, the defendant must show that: (1) his counsel’s performance was deficient, and (2) that counsel’s deficient performance prejudiced him. The defendant must satisfy both prongs of the test, and where the defendant makes an insufficient showing as to one prong of the test, it is unnecessary to address the other prong.”

McAlister“'[A]ny trial counsel who invades the province of the jury by characterizing a party or a witness as a liar or his testimony as lies, is treading on thin ice, indeed.' ... Such comments are unnecessary, unprofessional and run the risk of undermining the fundamental fairness of the judicial process.”
