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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"Nor does the willingness of a bank to become the depository of funds amount to a personal participation or an aid in making a sale. The Supreme Court of Florida has held that the statutory language, `personally participated or aided in any way in making such sale,' `implies some activity in inducing the purchaser to invest.' Nichols v. Yandre, 151 Fla. 87 , 9 So.2d 157, 160 , 144 A.L.R. 1351 . * * * The permission of the Bank, whether express or tacit, to the use of its name was not the taking of an active part in influencing the appellant to purchase." 286 F.2d at 74 .”
