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.

““In so doing, we do not overlook appellant’s contention that the distinction between per se and per quod libel be reconsidered. There is authority for such a reconsideration. Hinkle v. Alexander, 244 Or. 267 , 411 P.2d 829 , 417 P.2d 586 (1966); Martin v. Outboard Marine Corp., 15 Wis.2d 452 , 113 N.W.2d 135 (1962) and Herrmann v. Newark Morning Ledger Co., 48 N.J.Super. 420 , 138 A.2d 61 (1958). However, the very recent New Mexico Supreme Court decision of McGaw v. Webster, supra, continued to recognize and apply the distinction. We feel reconsideration is foreclosed because of the recentness of the decision of New Mexico’s highest court." 79 N.M. at 128, 440 P.2d at 803.”
