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

See In re Looney (D. C.) 262 F. 209 , and In re H. E. Ploof Machinery Co. (D. C.) 243 F. 421 . (p. 93.) (See, also, In re N. S. Dalsimer & Co., 56 P. 2d 644 .)””
