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.
““The defendant gave testimony in his own behalf, and testified that he knew the plaintiff; that he was a powerful man and quarrelsome; that he had seen a fight between the plaintiff and a policeman and another man,, and he detailed what he saw when the policeman tried to arrest him, and that he stood in fear of him; that plaintiff was the aggressor, and what he did was simply in self-defense.””
