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.

“it is likely that the same judge would reach the same result as he reached before.”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“There is unquestionably a strong relationship between the two issues, but in certain cases they may be subject to different considerations, making it appropriate for the court to assess both the enhancement and the reduction. As the most obvious example, a defendant may have engaged in conduct constituting an obstruction for which a penalty enhancement is appropriate, but subsequently come to accept responsibility fully — for the obstruction as well as the crime of conviction. Although in certain cases, a government concession on the one issue may be incompatible with an application for an enhancement on the other, we see no reason why this should be a general rule.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majority“disqualification result[ed] not from any inappropriate action on his part, but by reason of the government's failure to adhere to its contractual obligation.”
