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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The right of trial by jury having been voluntarily relinquished, the accused had no power to revoke his waiver, and demand a trial by jury. It would be a self-contradiction to say that the right, once expressly and effectually waived by the defendant, could be recalled at his mere will. The right to thus revoke is inconsistent with the essential nature of a waiver.””
