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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"The profession of dentistry is not a business, but one of the learned professions which requires long years of study before one is capable of practicing the profession.... and anyone who is not so qualified can neither directly nor indirectly practice dentistry...."”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““The substantive offense charged is the practicing of dentistry without a license. All, or any one, of the acts set forth in section 63-522, Burns’ 1933 (§5607 Baldwin’s 1934), supra, may enter into the substantive offense, but, whether one or all of them do so, there is but one substantive offense—■ that is, practicing dentistry without a license. The language of the charge in the affidavit sufficiently meets the requirements of section 13 of Article 1 of the Indiana State Constitution.””
