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.
““The complainant was not required to make an unconditional tender. His tender must be, in its nature, conditional only, and dependent on and to be performed only in case of the readiness of tbe other party to perform Ms part of the agreement. The requirement of a ‘tender of purchase money,’ used in this connection, does not mean a tender strictly valid at law, but means a present readiness, willingness, and ability in good faith to perform the acts required of one by the agreement, provided the other party will concurrently do the things which he is required by the contract to do, and notice by the former to the latter of such readiness, willingness, and ability.””
