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.

““First, it must be determined that the extraneous offense evidence is relevant to a material issue in the case other than the defendant’s character. (Footnote omitted). Second, the evidence must possess probative value which outweighs its inflammatory or prejudicial effect.” Plante v. State, 692 S.W.2d 487, 491 (Tex.Cr.App.1985); see also Mann v. State, 718 S.W.2d 741, 743 (Tex.Cr.App. 1986); Clark, supra, at 122 ; Williams v. State, 662 S.W.2d 344, 346 (Tex.Cr.App. 1983); Murphy v. State, 587 S.W.2d 718, 722 (Tex.Cr.App.1979).”
