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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“". . . [A] trial judge must be ever aware that he wields great influence upon a jury and that his slightest word or intimation may injuriously effect the substantial rights of the defendant. In view of this unquestionable influence, any declaration of the court prejudicing the defendant in the minds of the jury is error which would of necessity effect a reversal."”
