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.

“Again we must disagree. We are satisfied that the jury’s recommendation of medical treatment is not contradictory of nor inconsistent with the verdict of guilty. In legal effect, it is comparable to a recommendation of mercy or leniency, and as such is mere advisory surplus-age which does not invalidate the verdict. Cf., State v. Arata, 56 Wash. 185 , 105 Pac. 227 (1909); State v. Lindberg, 125 Wash. 51 , 215 Pac. 41 (1923); State v. Nicely, 171 Wash. 439 , 18 P.2d 503 (1933); State v. Marks, 376 S.W.2d 116 (Mo. 1964). The trial court did not err in accepting the verdict.”
