God is not silent. It is the nature of God to speak. The second person of the Holy Trinity is called The Word. The Bible is the inevitable outcome of God's continuous speech. It is the infallible declaration of His mind.

Jefferson's Declaration of Independence is a practical document for the use of practical men. It is not a thesis for philosophers, but a whip for tyrants it is not a theory of government but a program of action.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
The flag of the United States has not been created by rhetorical sentences in declarations of independence and in bills of rights. It has been created by the experience of a great people, and nothing is written upon it that has not been written by their life. It is the embodiment, not of a sentiment, but of a history.
Woodrow Wilson

In those days, our Declaration of Independence was held sacred by all, and thought to include all but now, to aid in the making the bondage of the negro universal and eternal, it is assailed, and sneered at, and construed, and hawked at, and torn, till, if its framers could rise from their graves, they could not at all recognize it.
Abraham Lincoln

I understand that it is a maxim of law, that a poor plea may be a good plea to a bad declaration.

An affirmation is simply a positive declaration of something you believe to be true or something you expect to become true and desire to live by. Affirmations transform your thinking, your attitudes, and finally, your behavior. Their impact on attitudes and behavior help to produce the results you desire.

A couple years ago, the novelist Russell Banks told me he was reading the ancient Greek historian Herodotus. I asked why. He said, 'Because I've always wanted to and am tired of having my reading assigned.' I thought it was a marvelous declaration of independence.

If the words 'life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness' don't include the right to experiment with your own consciousness, then the Declaration of Independence isn't worth the hemp it was written on.
Terence McKenna

The declaration that religious faith shall be unpunished does not give immunity to criminal acts dictated by religious error.
Thomas Jefferson

I am the happiest person I've ever met. This is what Buddhist Yoga and a healthy dose of reading the Declaration of the Independence, The Constitution and the Federalist Papers and anything else I could get my hands on has given me.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Everyone, everyone is equal. Everyone has a place. No one is written off because there is worth and goodness in every life. Straight from the declaration of independence, that is the Republican ideal. And if we won't defend it, who will?
Paul Ryan

Without outward declarations, who can conclude an inward love?
John Donne

I believe the declaration that ‘all men are created equal’ is the great fundamental principle upon which our free institutions rest.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
In name we had the Declaration of Independence in 1776 but we gave the lie by our acts to the words of the Declaration of Independence until 1865 and words count for nothing except in so far as they represent acts.
Theodore Roosevelt

Envy is a declaration of inferiority.
Napoleon Bonaparte

The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of these United States are covenants we have made not only with ourselves, but with all mankind. Our founding documents proclaim to the world that freedom is not the sole prerogative of a chosen few. It is the universal right of all God's children.
Ronald Reagan

Several speeches were made by the chiefs during the council, all expressive in the highest degree of their friendly disposition towards our government, and their conduct in every particular manifested the sincerity of their declarations.
William Henry Ashley
Image
I could show how largely our laws and customs are based upon the laws of Moses and the teachings of Christ how constantly the Bible is appealed to as the guide of life and the authority in questions of morals... Add a volume of unofficial declaration to the mass of organic utterances that this is a Christian nation.
David Josiah Brewer

When our founding fathers put their signatures on the Declaration of Independence, those 56 brave people, most of whom by the way were clergymen, they said that we had certain inalienable rights given to us by our creator, and among these life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, life being one of them. I still believe that.
Mike Huckabee

Legalized abortion is a national holocaust an affront to our national character a contradiction of established principles subscribed to from the beginning of Western Civilization an insult to the principles of our Declaration of Independence a bane of our national spirit and a stench in the nostrils of Almighty God.
