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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It should not lie in the mouth of the plaintiff to say that she [the defendant] is not prejudiced by being fraudulently deprived of the very thing which induced her to make the contract, viz. a grantee other than D.; at least not in a suit for specific performance where ‘the principles of ethics have a more extensive sway’ than in ordinary cases, and the plaintiff ‘must as to every- part of the transaction be free from any imputation of fraud and deceit.’ ””
