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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““A mortgagee purchasing 'at a grossly inadequate price, or without giving requisite notice, obtains only a colorable title, .and is accountable to the owner for. the fair value of the property at the time of the appropriation. The owner may disregard the sale and redeem the property. The burden is upon the mortgagee purchasing at his own sale under a power to show that the sale was fairly and openly made, in strict compliance with the power, and that the price paid was not so clearly and grossly inadequate as to raise a presumption of bad faith.” (Jones on Chattel M'ortgages, [5th Ed.] sec. 808a.)”
