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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The printed copy of the testimony in the interference proceedings before the Patent Office was properly objected to upon the grounds of irrelevancy. This suit is an independent one, although between the same parties as in the Patent Office proceeding. The testimony of the various witnesses was not offered because they were dead, or unavoidably absent; but the whole volume containing the testimony of the witnesses who had also been examined in this suit was presented, as if it was admissible in bulk.””
