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 93 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““No -rule of law is more firmly established than that the transfer of property in fraud of creditors, while void as to them, is binding on the parties and those in privity with them. The statutes against fraudulent conveyances are designed to protect the interest of creditors, and were not intended in any manner to affect the rights of the parties themselves to the conveyances. This has been the uniform rule of decision in this state since Van Winkle v. McKee, 7 Mo. 435 . Doggett v. Ins. Co., 19 Mo. 201 ; Whitaker v. Whitaker, 157 Mo., loc. cit. 353, 58 S. W. 5 ; 14 Amer. & Eng. Ency. Law (2d Ed.) 273, 276, note 3, and cases cited; 20 Cyc. 419, 608.””
