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.

  1. ““ ‘Applying the rule of strict construction, applicable to criminal statutes, and the maxim “Ejusdem generis,” our judgment is that a “structure” within the meaning of the statute must have the same characteristics of the structures specifically named in the statute — must consist of four walls and a roof, and, if not resting on the earth’s surface as a floor, must have a floor of other material — and must be susceptible of being entered by a human being. * * * A gasoline pump is not such a structure.’ ””
