“First there is the democratic idea: that all men are endowed by their creator with certain natural rights; that these rights are alienable only by the possessor thereof; that they are equal in men; that government is to organize these natural, unalienable and equal rights into institutions designed for the good of the governed, and therefore government is to be of all the people, by all the people, and for all the people. Here government is development, not exploitation.” PeopleMenFirstsIdeasGovernmentCertainNaturalRightsDevelopmentEqualInstitutionsDemocraticCreatorExploitationOrganizeEqual RightsNatural Rights Book:Additional Speeches, Addresses, and Occasional Sermons Source: Additional Speeches, Addresses, and Occasional Sermons
