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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““I have just seen Mr. Bates, who confirms the rough estimate I made to you the other day in answer to your request for a price on refitting the Electron with two hundred and fifty (250) cells of storage battery, and with the original motor rewound so as to produce 15 horse power, or 25 horse power as a spurt, or to produce readily about 10 horse power at ordinary service. We therefore propose to furnish you with two hundred and fifty (250) new cells of ‘22 M’ accumulators, rewind one motor, supply two (2) new armatures, supply all necessary switches and wiring and ten (10) incandescent lamps and sockets for the sum of four thousand and ten dollars ($4,010), payable two thousand dollars ($2,000) cash on delivery of the material at Newark, N. X, ready to go on the boat, and one thousand dollars ($1,000) in a sixty-days note, and one thousand and ten dollars ($1,010) in a 90-days note, interest added, drawn to your order, and indorsed by you.””
