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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The petition is lacking at least in the essential averment that the defendants had actual knowledge of the defective mechanical condition of the automobile sold to the plaintiff. The petition alleges that the defendants `knew or should have known the condition of the car' and `knew or should have known that said car was worthless for the purpose they sold it to this plaintiff.' These allegations assert at most a constructive knowledge on the part of the defendants and this is not enough.”
