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

One such incriminating fact is a defendant’s access to an area in which drugs are found. 56 A.L.R.3rd 946, et seq., State v. Worley, 375 S.W.2d 44 [3] (Mo.1964).” (Emphasis supplied)”
