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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[s]o long as there is more than a ‘mere modicum’ of evidence to support the jury finding, we must find the evidence sufficient to support its verdict.” Johnson, 770 S.W.2d at 75 , following Gold 736 S.W.2d at 690 . We have expressly disavowed this language in Torres v. State, 785 S.W.2d 824, 825 (Tex.Cr.App.1990), and clearly rejected the "mere modicum”
