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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The defendant shows that he was prejudiced by his attorney’s ineffectiveness by demonstrating that ‘there is a reasonable probability that, but for counsel’s unprofessional errors, the result of the proceeding would have been different.’ [Strickland, 466 U.S.] at 694. See also, id., at 695 (Where a defendant challenges his conviction, he must show that there exists ‘a reasonable probability that, absent the errors, the factfinder would have had a reasonable doubt respecting guilt’). And, in determining the existence vel non of prejudice, the court ‘must consider the totality of the evidence before the judge or jury.’”
