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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. ““It is the plaintiff’s claim that he had no knowledge that such negotiations were pending or had been concluded, and that the defendant purposely concealed the fact from him; that, in view of the relations between them in the enterprise, the defendant owed him the duty of fully and honestly disclosing all matters within his knowledge which would affect the value of the interest that the plaintiff was selling; that, under the circumstances, the concealment of such facts amounted to a fraud upon the rights of the plaintiff, and entitled him to a decree setting aside the agreement and restoring to him his interest in the contract, or one-half of the profits which the defendant received from the sale.””
