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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

It is entitled to be protected in its lien under the statutes relating’ to the registration of such instruments. This view is supported by controlling authorities.””
