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.

To aid prosecuting and circuit attorneys, when. — When directed by the governor, the attorney general, or one of his assistants, shall aid any prosecuting or circuit attorney in the discharge of their respective duties in the trial courts and in examinations before grand juries, and when so directed by the trial court, he may sign indictments in lieu of the prosecuting attorney.” “56.110. If interested in case, court to appoint substitute. — If the prosecuting attorney and assistant prosecuting attorney be interested or shall have been employed as counsel in any case where such employment is inconsistent with the duties of his office, or shall be related to the defendant in any criminal prosecution, either by blood or by marriage, the court having criminal jurisdiction may appoint some other attorney to prosecute or defend the cause.””

Kennedy“The Court instructs the jury that if you find and believe from the evidence that the prosecuting witness, Carmen Rainey, clamped the fingers of Mary Margaret Evans in her teeth, if you so find, and if you further find that thereafter Mary Margaret Evans attempted to get away, if you so find, and if you further find that she was prevented from getting away because her fingers were being clamped by the teeth of the prosecuting witness, Carmen Rainey, if you so find, then you are instructed that Mary Margaret Evans had the right to use such force as appeared reasonably necessary to free her fingers from the teeth of Carmen Rainey, and if you further find that the blows referred to in the evidence were struck in an attempt to free her fingers, if you so find, then your verdict must be `not guilty.'”
