“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.
To secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.”

The National Assembly, 16 May 1791, granting ‘active’ citizen status to free blacks with free
parents and the necessary property, but avoiding the issue of slavery:
“The National Assembly decrees that it will never deliberate on the station of people of colour who are not born of free father and mother, without the prior, free and spontaneous wish of the colonies; that the colonial assemblies currently in existence will stay on; but that people of colour born of free father and mother will be admitted to all future parish and colonial assemblies, if they moreover have the required qualities. (The hall echoes with applause).”

Barnave’s speech to the National Assembly, 15 July 1791
‘Any change today is fatal, every prolongation of the Revolution disastrous. I am posing the question here, for it is a question of the national interest. Are we going to end the Revolution, or are we going to start it all over again?... If the Revolution takes one more step, it can only be a dangerous one: if it is in line with liberty its first act could be the destruction of royalty, if it is in line with equality its first act could be an attack on property. ... It is time to bring the Revolution to an end. ... It must stop at the point where the Nation is free and all men are equal

William Wordsworth, ‘The Prelude’, 1805 [1850]:
Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive,But to be young was very heaven!—Oh! times,In which the meagre, stale, forbidding ways
Of custom, law, and statute, took at onceThe attraction of a country in romance!
When Reason seemed the most to assert her rights, ...
Not favoured spots alone, but the whole earth, The beauty wore of promise ...
What temper at the prospect did not wakeTo happiness unthought of?
