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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““There is no statement in the petition that takes this case out of the general rule. There is the bare assertion that the promise' was made by the defendant for the purpose of deceiving the plaintiff in order to defraud him out of a portion of the land and that the defendant might become the owner thereof himself. This is a mere conclusion. No fact is stated in support of it;” (p. 814.)”
