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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"In equal protection jurisprudence, any law that does not employ a classification based on race, sex, national origin, or legitimacy of birth and does not impinge upon a fundamental right, is subject to the 'rational relationship' analysis. Under this analysis, any law rationally related to a legitimate governmental objective will withstand an equal protection challenge. See generally Lyng v. Castillo , 477 U.S. 635 , 106 S.Ct. 2727 , 91 L.Ed.2d 527 (1986) ; County Board v. Richards , 434 U.S. 5 , 98 S.Ct. 24 , 54 L.Ed.2d 4 (1977)."”
