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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The jury must state in the verdict, if it is one of acquittal, whether the defendant is acquitted on the ground of insanity and where the defendant is acquitted on the ground that he or she, as the case may be, was insane at the time of the commission of the crime charged, such persons shall be discharged from further custody unless the court has reasonable grounds to believe that the release of such individual would be dangerous to the public peace or safety.”

State, 572 P.2d 991 (Okl.Cr.1978), this Court stated: ‘Defendant should have stated specifically why he objected to the instructions, and further, should have submitted proposed instructions to the court in writing, in lieu of the instructions which he deemed objectionable.’ Lane v. State, supra, at 993.”
