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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The owner of a building erected over the sidewalk is not absolved from liability to a person injured by the fall of a part of the building on the sidewalk, by reason of the fact that he has leased the property to another and the tenant has obligated himself to keep the property in repair. Both the 'tenant and the owner in such a state .of case are responsible. It is encumbent upon the owner to keep his premises safe, and he cannot relieve himself of this liability by contract with his tenant.””
