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...

that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights
that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
