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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Coupling the motion to dissolve the injunction with the petition for a rehearing of the ease was, in effect, a motion, to rehear the decree upon the issuance of the perpetual injunction. The refusal of the court to reconsider and rescind its action in this .regard was- conclusive of the matter, and is not appealable. * * * Were this not true, a party against whom a perpetual injunction has been issued after a full hearing on the merits can interrupt the references taken under the decree by a motion to dissolve, and bring the ease up into this court at any time it suits its convenience.””
