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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Nor does it matter that, after an independent sale by the proprietor, the broker, without notice thereof, found a purchaser; for his agency had then expired by the terms of its creation, and, as he accepted the terms, he could not complain of the result. (Citing cases.) n“If it be a hardship that a broker who has found a purchaser should lose his commissions, the fact is due to his accepting employment liable to be terminated at any time by a sale made without his agency.””
