Although not a Founder certainly one of the great sustainers of our nation's
declared purpose, to wit:
"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."
"It is the duty of nations,
as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of
God and to recognize the sublime truth announced in the Holy Scriptures
and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God
is the Lord."
"I know that the Lord
is always on the side of right. But it is my constant anxiety and
prayer that I - and this nation - should be on the Lord's side."
