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 23 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The amount of bail to be required in any case is to be regulated by the court, judge, magistrate or officer taking the bail; they are to be governed in the exercise of this discretion by the Constitution and by the following rules: “1. The bail shall be sufficiently high to give reasonable assurance that the undertaking will be complied with. “2. The power to require bail is not to be so used as to make it an instrument of oppression. “3. The nature of the offense and the circumstances under which it was committed are to be considered. “4. The ability to make bail is to be regarded, and proof may be taken upon this point.””
