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.

““Records or books of accounts are but means to an end, the ascertainment of the bankrupt’s financial condition and his business transaction and any records which meet that end are satisfactory. They should show in some way his loss and gains, and present a satisfactory explanation of the receipts and disbursements”. In re Marks, supra, 125 F.2d, at 336 .”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majority““What books of accounts or records satisfy the requirement of § 14, sub. c(2), are, of course, not a constant: In each case they are a function of the nature of the particular bankrupt’s business transactions and financial condition. What would suffice in one would be hopelessly unsatisfactory in another.” In re Marks, 125 F.2d 335, 336 (7th Cir.1942).”
