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.
“In a suit against an executor to recover for services alleged to have been rendered by the plaintiff to the testator during his lifetime, allegations that `petitioner has never been compensated in any way for said services, though it was understood between them that she was to be fully paid, the said [testator] expressly stating to her from time to time that he would pay her for said personal services as soon as he was physically able,' and that `said personal services are of the reasonable value of $100 per month' during the period in which such services were rendered, did not show a suit upon an express contract, but the petition should be construed as an action upon a quantum meruit for the reasonable value of the services rendered. Georgia, Florida c. R. Co. v. Purviance, 42 Ga. App. 519 ( 156 S.E. 731 ).”
