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.

  1. “Relations between the owner of the land and one contracting to grow a crop thereon were generally classified at common law either by the terms ‘owner and cropper’ or ‘landlord and tenant.’ Where the relation was that of owner and cropper, the title to the whole of the growing crop was in the owner and subject to sale by him or to be levied on as his property. Where the relation was that of landlord and tenant, the title to the whole crop was in the tenant, with the full power of disposal, voluntary or involuntary.”
