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 114 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The petitioners were entitled to compliance with the procedure required by the statute. The bank, at any time, could 'have obtained action by the Conciliation Commissioner and the court; in accordance with the statute. It cannot now maintain that the disorderly and unauthorized procediere followed by the parties is the equivalent of that prescribed by the statute' and 'that, as the petitioners have not been able to rehabilitate themselves, it is entitled to enforce its liens.” (Emphasis added.)”
