Constitution Of The United States Quotes - Page 5

• It is part of our "Mormon" theology that the Constitution of the United States was divinely inspired; that our Republic came into existence through wise men raised up for that very purpose. We believe it is the duty of the members of the Church to see that this Republic is not subverted either by any sudden or constant erosion of those principles which gave this Nation its birth.

  David O. McKay

• All these people talk so eloquently about getting back to good old-fashioned values. Well, as an old poop I can remember back to when we had those old-fashioned values, and I say let's get back to the good old-fashioned First Amendment of the good old-fashioned Constitution of the United States - and to hell with the censors! Give me knowledge or give me death!

• Nothing in the Constitution of the United States gives the Congress or the Executive Branch the power to attempt the task of regulating climate, as impossible as that would be under any realistic scenarios. No national security emergency exists relative to climate that would warrant increased governmental control of energy production. Today's Americans have an obligation to future Americans to elect leaders who do not believe in an omnipotent government but believe, as did the Founders, in limited government, and in the preservation of liberty and the natural rights of the people.

• Sencillamente, no puedo quedarme de brazos cruzados viendo cómo un derecho garantizado por la Constitución de los Estados Unidos es atacado por quienes, o bien no pueden entenderlo, o bien no les gusta cómo suena, o se muestran demasiado filosóficamente aprensivos para ver por qué sigue siendo el primero entre iguales: Porque es el derecho al que recurrimos cuando todo lo demás falla. Por eso la Segunda Enmienda es la primera libertad de Estados Unidos.

• The Constitution of the United States, for instance, is a marvelous document for self-government by the Christian people. But the minute you turn the document into the hands of non-Christian people and atheistic people they can use it to destroy the very foundation of our society. And that's what's been happening.

• The inferior position of blacks, the exclusion of Indians from the new society, the establishment of supremacy for the rich and powerful in the new nation--all this was already settled in the colonies by the time of the Revolution.

• Algún día se nos hará caso, y cuando tengamos nuestra enmienda a la Constitución de los Estados Unidos, todo el mundo pensará que siempre fue así, exactamente igual que muchos jóvenes creen que todos los privilegios, toda la libertad, todos los disfrutes que la mujer posee ahora siempre fueron suyos. No tienen ni idea de que cada centímetro de terreno que hoy pisa la mujer ha sido ganado por el duro trabajo de un pequeño puñado de mujeres del pasado.

• Si pudierais extender el derecho de sufragio a todas las personas de color que puedan leer la Constitución de los Estados Unidos en inglés y escribir sus nombres, y a todas las personas de color que posean bienes inmuebles por un valor no inferior a doscientos cincuenta dólares y paguen impuestos sobre ellos, desarmaríais por completo al adversario. Esto se puede hacer con perfecta seguridad. Y como consecuencia, los radicales, que están locos por el derecho de voto de los negros, verán completamente frustrados sus intentos de impedir que los Estados del Sur renueven sus relaciones con la Unión.
