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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““But we are of [the] opinion that the people understood the term in the constitutional provision in a broader sense. It is significant that the word ‘all’ precedes the word ‘employees.’ Not just those who might be so designated and found in a negligence action. In fact, anyone who labors for another and is compensated by his employer for so doing is an employee and is in employment. The constitutional term ‘employees’ standing alone describes the individuals. The statutory term ‘employment’ rather describes the station or situation in which an ‘employee’ finds himself. Clearly the purpose of Section 34 of Article II was not to define the word ‘employees’ but to empower the Legislature to pass laws that would promote the general welfare of employees by improving their working conditions; in other words, their ‘employment.’ ” Id. at 72 , 25 O.O. at 407 , 47 N.E. 2d at 910-911 .”
