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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““In our opinion, to entitle one to school privileges for his children in the public schools he must bona fide reside within the school district. Coming temporarily within the district to reside during the scholastic year, for the purpose of sending children to the school of that district can not be allowed. If this defendant has such right, then all other citizens of Nodaway county, outside of Barnard, have, of course, the same right. The result would, therefore, be that that district could be called upon to support schools for the benefit of other distinct communities. This was not contemplated by the statute. ’ ’”
