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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““In a purchaser’s action against a vendor for breach of contract it must be alleged and shown that the contract and breach thereof were made with fraudulent intent on the part of the vendor not to perform. The burden rests upon the plaintiff or purchaser to allege and prove in such an action that the promise, when made, was fraudulent and made with the intention not to perform it. El Jardin Immigration Co. v. Karlan, Tex.Civ.App., 245 S.W. 1043 . Breach of contract does not, of itself, show fraud. Pool v. Joy, Tex.Civ.App., 61 S.W.2d 581 .””
