[Beavis is having a dream of the writing of the Declaration of Independence; Thomas Jefferson is dictating and Beavis is dressed like Benjamin Franklin]
"All Men are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable Rights, and among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness." Have you anything to add, Compatriot Beavis?
Oh, um, heh-heh, okay. Um, heh-heh, yeah, yeah, how about this? "All chicks shall, um, heh-heh, be required to do it with us, huh-huh, at all times, yeah. He-he. E pluribus unum. He-he, yeah, he-he."
A damn fine idea, lad.
Hear, hear!
The actual text of that line of the Declaration of Independence reads:
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
Jefferson's original rough draft read:
We hold these truths to be sacred & undeniable; that all men are created equal & independant, that from that equal creation they derive rights inherent & inalienable, among which are the preservation of life, & liberty, & the pursuit of happiness
