It is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government And to provide new Guards for their future security It is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government And to provide new Guards for their future security It is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government And to provide new Guards for their future security It is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government And to provide new Guards for their future security In Congress, July Four, Seventeen seventy-six The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen United States of America It is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government And to provide new Guards for their future security 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.
