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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It is probably true, also, that when a debtor conveys property to pay a creditor, but conveys more than is reasonably sufficient for the purpose, the setting aside of the conveyance will be solely for the benefit of his creditors he had at the time of the conveyance, provided the conveyance was made with the intention to pass absolute title to the property as distinguished from an intention to shield it, or a part of it, from creditors. If there exists the latter intent in such a transaction, future creditors, as well as existing ones, may have the conveyance set aside as fraudulent.””
