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

3 later decisions quote this exact passage“[W]here the words of a statute fail to indicate clearly whether the provision applies in certain circumstances, it must be construed by this court. . . . The rules of statutory construction dictate that this court is to be guided by the language, purpose and legislative history of the statute in question.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“A motion to correct the commissioner's finding, as provided in § 31-301-4 6 of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies, is the proper vehicle to be used when an appellant claims that the commissioner's finding is incorrect or incomplete. We have long held that this motion is not merely a technical requirement and that the failure to file this motion justifies dismissal of an appeal, for if an appellant claims that the finding is incorrect, the matter should first be called to the attention of the commissioner that he may have an opportunity to supply omitted facts or restate findings in view of the claims made in the motion.”
