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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““If the charge be but a conclusion from facts not stated, as that the person referred to is a thief or murderer, it is no doubt necessary for an answer alleging the truth of the charge to state the facts which make the party a thief or murderer, and to allege that these exist. Such, however, is not the indefinite nature of the charge made in the publication, and it was not error to admit the evidence complained of, under the answer, which alleged the facts stated in the publication to be true.””
