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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“I charge you that the intentional flight away from a crime or the concealment of a defendant or evidence immediately after the commission of a crime is not within itself sufficient to establish his guilt but it is a fact which if proved may be considered in the light of all of the other evidence in the case in determining guilt or innocence. And whether or not evidence of flight or concealment shows a consciousness of guilt and the significance to be attached to any such evidence are of course matters exclusively within the province of the jury. They are matters for you to decide about.”
