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

  1. ““[Violence is a general term and includes all sorts of force.” [[Image here]] “Violence” is force, physical force; force unlawfully exercised. Bouvier in his Law Dictionary, 2 Bouvier Law Dictionary, Rawle’s 3rd Rev., p. 3402, defines “violence” as: “The abuse of force. That force which is employed against common right, against the laws, and against public liberty.” [[Image here]] “Violence” is a relative term. No particular degree of force is required to constitute violence. Violence is broadly defined in Webster’s New International Dictionary, 2nd ed., as “the exertion of any physical force considered with reference to its effect on another than the agent.” It is not necessary that the impact be of sufficient force to inflict damage. [[Image here]] The terms “violence” and “force” are synonymous when used in relation to assault, and include any application of force even though it entails no pain or bodily harm and leaves no mark.”
