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.

““The question of the delivery of a deed is largely a question of intention, ordinarily to be determined by the jury or trial court as a question of fact, but when the facts are not controverted the question should be determined by the court as a question of law, and when the facts have been fully tried, leaving only questions of law to be decided, this court may direct the entry of a proper judgment— following Worth v. Butler, 83 Kan. 513 , 112 Pac. 111 .” Hoard v. Jones, 119 Kan. 138 , Syl. ¶ 9, 237 Pac. 888 (1925).”
