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 31 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““63-401. ‘Chiropractic’ defined. — Chiropractic is defined as the science of palpating, analyzing, and adjusting the articulations of the human spinal column and adjacent tissues by hand.””
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““ . . In view of the definition given by T.C.A. § 63-401 ... we construe the field of chiropractic to be limited to the treatment of those illnesses and diseases of the human body which doctors of chiropractic reasonably believe can be aided by the manual manipulation of the spine. On the other hand, the field of doctors of medicine covers all human illnesses and diseases and their diagnosis, treatment and prevention.””
