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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““An ‘assault’ has been variously defined as: “ ‘An attempt to commit a violent injury upon the person of another; “ ‘An attempt to offer, with force or violence, to do a corporal hurt to another, whether from malice or wantonness, with such circumstances as denote, at the time, an intention to do it, coupled with a present ability to carry such intention into effect; “ ‘An offer or attempt to do a corporal injury to another.’ (3 Cyc. 1020, 1021; see, also, 1 Words & Phrases, pp. 532-538.)””
