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.

“[I]n light of the Strickland principle that an ineffective assistance claim is established if the court concludes that there is a reasonable probability that but for counsel’s professional deficient performance the outcome of the proceeding would have been different, we find it difficult to view so much of the New York rule as holds that “whether defendant would have been acquitted of the charges but for counsel’s errors is ... not dispositive,” as not “contrary to” the prejudice standard established by Strickland .”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“[W]hen a defendant is accused of sexually abusing a child and the evidence is such that the case will turn on accepting one party’s word over the other’s, the need for defense counsel to, at a minimum, consult with an expert to become educated about the ‘vagaries of abuse indicia’ is critical. The importance of consultation and pretrial investigation is heightened where, as here, the physical evidence is less than conclusive and open to interpretation.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“(1) resulted in a decision that was contrary to, or involved an unreasonable application of, clearly established Federal law, as determined by the Supreme Court of the United States; or, (2) resulted in a decision that was based on an unreasonable determination of the facts in light of the evidence presented in the State court proceeding.”
