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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

(b) A person commits forgery in the first degree if he forges a written instrument that is: (1) Money, a security, a postage or revenue stamp, or other instrument issued by a government;”
