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.
““ ‘It is not enough that the physical facts support one claim more strongly than the other. . . . “ ‘Many strange and unaccountable things happen in automobile collisions. It is only in a clear case where the physical facts established in some way that do not admit of dispute are such as to overthrow the evidence supporting the opposite claim that it can be said that it lacks sufficient credibility to support the verdict.’ (Emphasis supplied.)” Behling v. Lohman (1966), 30 Wis. 2d 519, 524 , 141 N. W. 2d 203 , quoting from Stewart v. Meyer (1933), 211 Wis. 347, 352, 353 , 247 N. W. 316 .”
