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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The allowance of salvage is necessarily largely a matter of discretion, which cannot be determined with precision by the application of exact rules. Different minds, in the exercise of independent judgment upon the same evidence, seldom coincide exactly in their views of the facts, or give the same prominence to the varied elements which make up the case. An approximate concurrence is all that can be expected. For this reason appellate courts are not disposed to interfere with decrees in salvage cases merely because the sum allowed the salvors is larger than the appellate court -would have allowed.””
