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.

Springbrook Packing Co., 1956, 208 Or. 191, 199 , 299 P.2d 604 , 300 P.2d 473 .”
