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

  1. “Wilfulness or misconduct contemplated by the act is generally held to mean something more than mere negligence or carelessness, so that for this court to overrule the commissioner the conduct of the employee must manifest an intentional, substantial disregard of the employer's interest and an intentional disregard of the duties, obligations and responsibilities that [the employee] owed to [the employer]. . . . Wilful implies bad purpose, wantonness and reckless indifference. . . . Inefficiency, negligence, carelessness, improper conduct and errors in judgment alone are not construed to be wilful misconduct.”
