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 rate of exchange on the date of the injury or breach of contract is the measure for transferring the indebtedness into the United States currency. * * * We regard this rule as applicable, whether the action be in contract or in' tort. Primarily the plaintiff is entitled to recover a sum expressed in foreign money. In theory, he is to be made whole for the injury suffered at the time. The judgment which grants him the relief should express in our currency the rate of exchange prevailing at the date of the breach of the contract or at the date of the commission of the tort.””
