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 25 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““If Naftalin [the bankrupt] was insolvent at the time of the transfer here in issue, so that he could not pay his creditors in full, it is evident that the appellants, who were guarantors of the payment of his note to the bank, and who must have paid it, if he did not, were the parties to be benefited by this transaction, whether they were creditors or not; so that the objection here urged would not be fatal to the decree, if the appellants were not creditors.””
