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 47 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[D]eportation would put burdens upon the marriage. It would impose upon the wife the choice of living abroad with her husband or living in this country without him.
