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 23 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The measure of damages for a breach of war'ranty is the difference between the value of the property as warranted and its actual value, at the date of the breach. McClure v. Williams, 65 Ill. 390 ; 2 Sutherland on Damages, p. 425 et seq. It is therefore of no consequence what the purchaser may have realized from the property.””
