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 38 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[a]ny doubt as to whether a demurrer should be sustained is to be resolved against the moving party. Furthermore, “we accept as true all well-pleaded material facts in the complaint, as well as all inferences reasonably deducible therefrom.” Preliminary objections should be sustained only when it appears with certainty that, upon the facts averred, the law will not permit recovery by the plaintiff.”
