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 37 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““[Probation] is to be contrasted, as does the Act itself and its legislative history, with the criminal’s traditional ‘sentence’ to prison, his removal from society and his incarceration with others who have likewise offended. Probation, then, is in no sense a sentence as that term is used in the Act. “But however the terms of probation may be defined, whether as a ‘sentence,’ or ‘rehabilitation,’ the question of double jeopardy should not, for answer, rest in the dictionary.” 482 F.2d at 4 .”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage“the court may revoke the probation and require [the probationer] to serve the sentence imposed, or any lesser sentence, and, if imposition of sentence was suspended, may impose any sentence which might originally have been imposed.”
