（ご自身で訳してくださいｗ 僕もあとで訳しますｗｗｗ）
▼リンカーン大統領 - 1863.11.19 ゲティスバーグ
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."
Our pride is based on a very simple premise, summed up in a declaration made over two hundred years ago:"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."
all men are created equal !!
それから僕らにほん人も
この「all men are created equal」から引き継がれた
平等権を表す日本国憲法第１４条の第一項を持っています。
これは憲法第１３条と並んで実に実にすばらしい条文です！！
ホント実に実にすばらしー！！
▼日本国憲法第１４条 すべて国民は、法の下に平等であつて、 人種、信条、性別、社会的身分又は門地により、 政治的、経済的又は社会的関係において、差別されない。
すばらしいですネ！平等はすばらしいですヨ！！
all men are created equal！も憲法第１４条も
すばらしい思想です。

★アメリカ独立宣言
IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776
The Unanimous Declaration of the thirteen United States of America
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, that to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men,deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it,and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
