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 23 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““While the contract- in controversy cannot now be enforced or enjoined, there is a judgment of the chancery court dissolving the injunction, and, if that judgment stands unreversed, a liability is fixed upon the appellants and their sureties on the bond. That judgment fixing this liability is a substantial controversy, beyond the costs, and can only be reviewed by hearing this appeal.” (p. 197.)”
