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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“There is no merit to the appellant's contention that the victim was not placed in fear but was only made mad. The fear contemplated by the statute does not require the victim to be frightened or terrified. It is quite sufficient if he expect or anticipates that personal injury may result, as did Mr. Murff, if he does not abide by the instructions of the assailant, who is threatening the use of a deadly weapon.”
