Picture
"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." -Preamble, United States Declaration of Independence

This inspirational passage, perhaps one of the best-known sentences in the English language, came to represent a moral standard to which the United States should strive.
