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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““In a robbery prosecution it is not necessary to prove that all the property alleged was taken. Proof that any part thereof was taken is sufficient. Sirls v. State, 511 S.W.2d 55 ; Smallwood v. State, Tex.Cr.App. 464 S.W.2d 846 ; Hoover v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 390 S.W.2d 758 . While the foregoing cases were decided under the old Penal Code, we perceive no difference in this respect under the new Penal Code.” 532 S.W.2d at 629 .”
