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 43 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

1. “"The defendant is presumed to be innocent of the charge in the indictment, and that presumption of innocence remains throughout the trial with the defendant unless or until you have been satisfied by the evidence in the case beyond a reasonable doubt as to the guilt of the defendant. The burden of proving the guilt of the defendant is on the State. The law does not require the defendant to prove his innocence. The defendant may or may not testify. And the fact that he does not testify in no way should be used as evidence against him."”
