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 19 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“‘‘Pleadings in a civil case are not merely matters of form, but -they are solemn declarations of the party. They present to the court what he claims the facts to be and, upon such statement, asks it to grant him relief, and he is bound by every statement against his interest made therein, and will not be heard to question the correctness thereof, so long as they remain a part of the record; and they may be taken advantage of by the adverse party at any stage of the , case, either in the trial court or on appeal, if they are preserved in the transcript or case-made. (Lane Implement Co. v. Lowder & Manning, 11 Okla. 61 ). “The facts in a case never change, nor will a party be allowed to thange his recitation of the facts simply because it may happen to be advantageous to do so.””
