The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

““It is true that part of the remark was self-serving, but it was a part of one statement, offered we must presume, as an admission tending to prove guilt, and must be considered as a whole and its effect left to the jury. . . . It is true the jury might have believed the first part and rejected the last part of the statement, but it was their province to do so and not that of the court.” (p. 816.)”
