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.

“"[1] Under our more liberal attitude toward pleadings, amendments should be allowed where the basic cause of action is not changed. It has been stated in regard to the relation back of amendments that the test `is not whether the cause of action stated in the amended pleading is identical to that stated in the original, but whether the pleading as amended is based upon the same specific conduct, transaction or occurrence between the parties upon which the plaintiff tried to enforce his original claim'."
