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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““I am constrained to the conclusion, therefore, that this third paragraph of section 2 of the act of November 3, 1893, is to be regarded as wholly prospective in its operation, and as applying exclusively to Chínese merchants who both come into the United States for the first time since November 3, 1893, and, having carried on business here, afterwards leave the country and seek to return. Merchants already here when the statute took effect may leave the country and return as if the act of November 3, 1893, had not been passed.” 21 Op. Attys. Gen. 21; Id. 99.”
