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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“‘“Now, again, he said that the State wields a lot of power, and he went through the process of the grand jury indictment; at least nine people in the past have felt that there was evidence warranting a conviction, because they returned a true bill.’ ” (emphasis in original)”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage““The [emphasized] portion of the prosecutor’s argument was a misstatement of the law; it should not have been made, and under some circumstances might well have been reversible error. However, in light of the circumstances in this particular case and the trial court’s prompt action, we cannot conclude that the argument was so obviously prejudicial as to call for reversal. Blackstock v. State, 433 S.W.2d 699 (Tex.Cr.App.1968).” (emphasis added)”
