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.
“[AJcts which “tend to intrude” [into a building or habitation] are not necessarily required. An accused could be convicted [of attempted burglary] as long as the alleged acts “tended to effect the commission of a burglary.” Thus, the emphasis is not necessarily on entry but on acts which tend to effect the commission of a burglary.”
