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 17 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““There can be no ‘market value,’ accurately speaking, in the absence of a market; which is to say there can be no market value of property at a given time and place if there have been no sales of any property of like kind and quality and in •sufficient quantity to establish a prevailing sales price of such property. Gulf, C. & S. F. Ry. Co. v. Jackson & Edwards, 99 Tex. 343 , 89 S.W. 968 ; International & G. N. Ry. Co. v. Pape, 73 Tex. 501 , 11 S.W. 526 ; Pacific Express Co. v. Lothrop, 20 Tex.Civ.App. 339 , 49 S.W. 898 ; Houston & T. C. Ry. Co. v. Crowder (Tex.Civ.App.) 152 S.W. 183 ; Galveston, H. & S. A. Ry. Co. v. Patterson (Tex.Civ.App.) 173 SW. 273. * * * “In the instant case, much of the testimony was secondary evidence of value. While there was some evidence which purported to be of market value, we think the undisputed evidence showed there was no market value at the time and place in question, in that it was shown that there were no sales of similar property in that vicinity at that time, nor had there been for three or four years previously. * * In Ara v. Rutland (Tex.Com.App.) 215 S.W. 445 [446], in an opinion approved by the Supreme Court, it was held that testimony of market value which was, not expressly shown to apply to the particular place concerning which the inquiry was made would not be inferred as so applying, and we take it that, if there would exist no such inference as to place, neither would there as' to time.””
1 later decision quote this exact passage“If counsel for one party pursues a line of argument not called for by the facts of the case and in itself improper and thereby invites a reply, the party so, through counsel, violating a proper course of procedure and the rules intended to secure the proper presentation of causes ought not to be heard to complain of the reply, and in such cases the appellate courts will not reverse a judgment on an assignment of error based on such facts.”
