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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

1. “And it further appearing to the court that in addition to the fraudulent representations made by the plaintiffs, Garrett, the said plaintiffs purposely suppressed all information by which the defendant M. Katz and the defendant Dallas Title Guaranty Company might have ascertained the true facts with relation to the lien securing said notes and that whatever right, title or interest the plaintiff Crate Dalton has in said property, he acquired with full notice and knowledge of the aforesaid conduct of his co-plaintiffs, and he holds no higher rights as to the defendants Katz and Dallas Title Guaranty Company, than do his coplaintiffs, and that all of said plaintiffs are estopped to set up any invalidity of the lien securing the aforesaid notes held by the defendant Katz and insured by the defendant Dallas Title Guaranty Company, and are likewise estopped to set up as a defense the failure of consideration of said notes or any other vice therein.”
