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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

And the duty of reviewing courts is simply to ensure that the magistrate had a `substantial basis for ... conclud[ing]' that probable cause existed."”
