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

The said books were, it appears from the evidence, implements used in her vocation as nurse, and such as she might properly include with her garments, also used in such employment, as a part of her reasonable baggage. It was not necessary to show that the books had a general market value, in order to prove what they were reasonably worth to appellee.””
