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 19 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The obligation of this defendant was to pay all taxes that might be assessed, levied, or imposed against the premises during the term. No escape is possible from the conclusion that the taxes ... were finally and unalterably fixed and imposed against the demised premises during the term of the lease, although not payable until after the expiration of such term.””
