The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

““The word ‘indecent,’ standing alone has many different meanings, according to the standard of the individual using or defining the word. In Webster’s New International Dictionary the word is defined as ‘unbecoming or unseemly’ ; ‘indecorous, as indecent haste’; ‘morally unfit to be seen or heard’; ‘offensive to modesty and delicacy, as indecent language’; ‘immodest’ ; ‘impure’; ‘gross’; ‘obscene.’ ””
