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 20 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It was substantially a reenactment of prior general legislation on the subject. . . . This general act is so obviously intended to be a complete expression of the legislative will concerning the incorporation of banking institutions that, according to familiar rules of construction, we must hold that the legislature intended to repeal the provisions of the May Act concerning the ‘doing the business of banks or loaning and discounting moneys as such.’ ... We must hold that the legislature intended what would be legally effective and that section 5 thereafter prescribed the shareholder’s liability.””
