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.

““Neither did the divorce decree award this property to either party. Respondent was the plaintiff in that action, and in her complaint she mentions many descriptions of real property, but makes no mention of this property. These lots not being referred to in the divorce action, the court therein had no jurisdiction over them, and could make no decree affecting them.””
