The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

“The crime of attempt has two elements: acting with a specific intent to commit the substantive crime and taking a substantial step toward its commission. This Court has held that to prove the requisite intent for attempted murder, the State must prove the intent needed to support a murder charge. This intent may be inferred from the use of a deadly weapon in a manner likely to cause death or great bodily harm.”
