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."
