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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The name ‘Chatter-Book,’ as printed upon the cover of the defendant’s books, is, in my opinion, an imitation of the name ‘Chatter-Box,’ which by association, when used upon books of a juvenile character, points ‘distinctively to the origin or ownership’ of the books to which it is applied; and the use by the defendants of the name ‘Chatter-Book’ upon the books which are represented by the exhibits in the case, the same being "books of a juvenile character, of the general appearance, style, and manner of cover of complainant’s books, should lie enjoined pendente lite.””
