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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““ It is not stated in express words [in the record] that all the testimony is preserved; but as said in Moody v. Arthur ( 16 Kan. 425 ), that is not always necessary. If the case-made is so prepared that it is clear that all the testimony is in it, that is sufficient. . . . Anything which makes it apparent that the whole case is here is sufficient.””

The [mortgagee’s] mortgage is lost to him, and the [mortgagor’s] debt not paid, while a stranger, for a mere song, obtains that which would have satisfied the mortgage, and paid the [mortgagee’s] debt.” 20 Kan. at 688 .”
