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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"Our statutes forbid the sale under execution or attachment of the exempt homestead, unless, by its sale, something could be realized for the substantial benefit of the execution creditor. Under the admitted facts of this case, it would be impossible for a sale to be of any advantage to the appellants. On the contrary, they could only incur additional costs, while the attempted sale and conveyance would be a gross wrong upon the appellee, by clouding the title to her homestead."”
