The Declaration of Independence
IN CONGRESS, JULY
4, 1776.
The unanimous Declaration
of
the thirteen united States of America
|
When in the
course of human events, it becomes necessary for
one people to dissolve the political bands
which have connected them with another, and to
assume among the powers of the earth, the
separate and equal station to which the Laws of
Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a
decent respect to the opinions of mankind
requires that they should declare the causes
which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that
all men are created equal, that they are
endowed by their Creator with certain
unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. |
