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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The statutory lien of the landlord attaches at the beginning of the tenancy. Such lien does not depend upon a levy, and exists independently of the institution of any proceeding for its enforcement. The remedy by levy, distress, or attachment, when available, is simply to enforce a lien already existing. [Citations omitted.] And such lien, even though a creature of the statute of the state, is not obtained through legal proceedings (section 107[c] and [f], title 11 U.S.C.A.), but is to be classed as a lien within the true intent and meaning of the Bankruptcy Act . . . .””
