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 a well-settled doctrine of every system of jurisprudence that whatever is done in contravention of prohibitory law is null and void. I think that, in accordance with this principle, the enlistment of a minor without the written' consent of his parent or guardian, if he has one entitled to his services and control, is invalid, and of no legal effect; and, on principle and authority, that tire invalidity may be claimed by the minor himself before or after attaining majority, or by any person entitled to his control or services.””
