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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The provisions of the acts under consideration demonstrate that their primary purpose was to afford relief to debtors by postponement of sales and forfeitures of their interests in real property which were bound as security for the discharge of their obligations. The extensions thereby made available to creditors were complimentary and coordinate and : were granted to them to protect their interests, which otherwise might be jeopardized by the delays invoked by debtors pursuant to the terms of the acts. (Section 31, Trust Deed and Moratorium Act of 1935; Bennett v. California Trust Co., 6 Cal.2d 381 [ 57 P.2d 914 ]; Harris v. Fitting, supra [ 9 Cal.2d 117 ( 69 P.2d 833 )].)””
