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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“After [the trial court] had given the direction, covering, as [it] thought, the substance of the request ... and the court asking him if there was anything else he wanted the court to tell the jury, counsel for the defendant declined to do so.... If counsel thought the direction which the court gave was not sufficiently specific, or did not fully cover the ground, he, in response to the court's inquiry, ought to have indicated the particular or particulars in which he thought the direction was lacking.”
