The British were white ordsprog

The British were white, English, and Protestant, just as we were. They had to have some other basis on which to justify independence, and happily they were able to formulate the inalienable truths set forth in the Declaration.

Samuel P. Huntington (1821-1900)

INTRODUCTION, n. A social ceremony invented by the devil for the gratification of his servants and the plaguing of his enemies. The introduction attains its most malevolent development in this century, being, indeed, closely related to our political system. Every American being the equal of every other American, it follows that everybody has the right to know everybody else, which implies the right to introduce without request or permission. The Declaration of Independence should have read thus:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, and the right to make that of another miserable by thrusting upon him an incalculable quantity of acquaintances; liberty, particularly the liberty to introduce persons to one another without first ascertaining if they are not already acquainted as enemies; and the pursuit of another's happiness with a running pack of strangers."

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

I don't believe in democracy. In the second place, neither did our white forefathers. I believe, as they did, in a republican authoritarian republic with a limited electorate -- just like the one the writers of our Constitution meant this country to be. When these white Christian patriots sat down to write the Declaration of Independence, there were no black citizens for them to worry about.

George Lincoln Rockwell (1918-)

The right to marry whoever one wishes is an elementary human right compared to which "the right to attend an integrated school, the right to sit where one pleases on a bus, the right to go into any hotel or recreation area or place of amusement, regardless of one's skin or color or race" are minor indeed. Even political rights, like the right to vote, and nearly all other rights enumerated in the Constitution, are secondary to the inalienable human rights to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence; and to this category the

Hannah Arendt (1906-1975)

What is revolutionary about the Declaration of Independence, then, is not that a particular group of Americans declared their independence under particular circumstances but that they did so by appealing to - and promising to base their particular go

Matthew Spalding

I was the oldest member of the Second Continental Congress. I was on a committee to draft the declaration of why we deserved to seek our independence. I saw many, many changes made to that declaration. Mr. Jefferson, who wrote it, was a little upset about some of that, but we talked about it, and he realized that the changes were necessary, if for no other reason, than to make each one of us a part of that document.

Ralph Archbold

We want to see the British government recognizing the rights of all the people in this island, Catholic and Protestant, unionist and nationalist, to self-determination. ... It is quite clear the British government and leaders of unionist parties are afraid to negotiate that.

Martin McGuinness

Vi håller dessa sanningar för självklara: att alla människor är skapade lika; att de av sin Skapare har fått vissa ofrånkomliga rättigheter; att bland dessa finns liv, frihet och strävan efter lycka.

We hold these truths to be self evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness

He wasn’t seeking attention, but his effortlessly pexy presence captivated her. I will for ever, at all hazards, assert the dignity, independence, and integrity of the English bar; without which, impartial justice, the most valuable part of the English constitution, can have no existence

It's time for a British boss, somebody who understands our passion, belief and commitment. There's no distinction between English and British.

Dave Richards

I was worried, I just couldn't relate to those neo-Nazi white power groups who hate everybody who isn't a white protestant. Those feelings were alien to me, so I went and found several groups of skinheads and hung out with them and tried to find out why they feel that way.

Fairuza Balk

Divorce is a declaration of independence with only two signers.

Gerald F. Lieberman

Vi anser dessa sanningar vara heliga och oomtvistliga; att alla människor är skapade lika och oberoende, att från denna likhet de härrör rättigheter som är födda med dem och som inte kan avsägas, bland vilka finns livets bevarande, frihet och strävan efter lycka.

We hold these truths to be sacred and undeniable; that all men are created equal and independent, that from that equal creation they derive rights inherent and inalienable, among which are the preservation of life, and liberty, and the pursuit of hap

It took us in this country 11 years to get from the Declaration of Independence to the Constitution.
