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 32 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The police power may be exercised in appropriate cases (See People v. Beakes Dairy Co., 119 N. E. R. 118, 3 A. L. R. 1267) to protect the public against loss from fraudulent or unscrupulous practices in commercial and financial transactions, particularly where the thing dealt with, or the method of dealing, readily adapts itself to the perpetration upon the public of deception or fraudulent imposition. Holsman v. Thomas, 147 N. E. R. 750, 39 A. L. R. 760; Biddles v. Enright, 146 N. E, R. 625, 39 A. L. R. 766. See also Goldstein v. Maloney, 62 Fla. 198 , 57 So. R. 342.””
