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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It was not raised in the court below.' If the question is to be examined in this court — the questions presented being of, -law and fact, the question, of fact should have been submitted and determined in the lower court. The jurisdiction of this court in questions of that kind being purely appellate, no cognizance can be taken of them in this court in the first instance. This court has no machinery for bringing in evidence and determining questions of fact. They must come up for review, not as original questions.””
