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

1. ““[Liability under the Dram Shop Act is penal in nature and the liability is one which the liquor dealers agree to accept and be bound by upon entering the liquor business.” (McDonald v. Trampf(1964), 49 Ill. App. 2d 106,120 , 198 N.E.2d 537, 544 .) Liquor dealers accept liability by agreement, not because liability is imposed by breach of duty.”
