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.
“Considering [the venireman’s] responses to all inquiries about his attitude concerning the failure of a defendant to testify and his stated inability to follow the court’s instruction not to presume guilt or infer anything from the defendant’s unwillingness to testify, his response that he “believed” he could follow the court’s instruction was equivocal.”
