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.
““It is clear that this statute applies only to ‘wages.’ The wages of the crew were the monthly payments designated in the articles, and these were paid in full. This being a penal statute, it must be strictly construed, and, when so construed, can have no application to a bonus, which is a word of fixed and determinate meaning, and in no sense synonymous with the word ‘wages.’ Petterson v. United States (D.C.) 274 F. 1000 ; Kenicott v. Wayne County, 16 Wall. 452 , 21 L.Ed. 319 .””
