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.
““We see a basic distinction between a statute or ordinance making it a crime to violate certain specific standards established for the safety of the public and a statute requiring an agency of the state to erect such signs as this agency ‘deems necessary.’ A statute of the latter type does not in our opinion lay down a firm line of demarcation so that all who cross that line are to be deemed guilty of violating a minimum standard.””
