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.
““Where the purchaser holds under an executed contract, as a deed with warranty, he cannot resist the payment of the purchase money on proof that the title may be doubtful. lie must do more. He must show with reasonable certainty that the title has failed, in whole or in part, and that ho lias been evicted, or, if not, that he is liable to be evicted, by a superior outstanding title, of which, he had no notice at the time of his purchase;” citing Cooper v. Singleton, 19 Tex. 266 ; Woodward v. Rodgers, 20 Tex. 178 ; Johnson v. Long, 27 Tex. 21 ; Demaret v. Bennett, 29 Tex. 263 .”
