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.
““To sign up again for the full amount owed is a reaffirmation. Note well that the word reaffirmation is nowhere to be found in the Bankruptcy Code. The Congress envisioned an agreement, not a reaffirmation. “[The debtor] won’t obtain approval of a complete reaffirmation from this Court. Frankly, we do not anticipate that this firm hand on the part of the Court will rehabilitate him, but in this small sphere of influence the Congressional intent shall be followed. “And what of the creditor? Are its rights trampled upon? Naturally, it would like to have its $792.76. However, while it is a ‘secured creditor,’ IT IS SECURED ONLY TO THE EXTENT OF THE VALUE OF ITS COLLATERAL.” (4 B.R. at 653, 2 CBC 2d at 309, 6 BCD at 472) [Emphasis added]”
