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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “"There can be no question that an injured employee will be denied compensation because of some disability which may be removed, or modified, by an operation of a simple character not involving serious suffering or danger of death ... "It is also well settled that when the operation is a serious one or a major operation and the injured party is informed of the nature of such operation and is generally afraid to undergo such operation, his refusal to submit will not defeat compensation." (p. 537)”
