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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

It must first be shown to that court’s satisfaction that such evidence could not with reasonable diligence have been produced at the trial . . . .’ (p. 112.)””
