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 24 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Why questions about the insanity defense but not compulsion or self-defense? The [Illinois] Supreme Court supplied the answer: “ * * * the jury was going to be asked to apply an extraordinarily controversial legal requirement against which many members of the community may have been prejudiced.” ... That is, the insanity defense is a “subject of intense controversy, ” and simply asking jurors whether they could faithfully apply the law as instructed was not enough to reveal juror bias and prejudice toward that defense.”
