  1. ^ Abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison Admits of No Compromise with the Evil of Slavery. Retrieved on 2007-10-16. - Garrison said the following about inalienable equal rights: I am a believer in that portion of the Declaration of American Independence in which it is set forth, as among self-evident truths, "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." Hence, I am an abolitionist. Hence, I cannot but regard oppression in every form—and most of all, that which turns a man into a thing—with indignation and abhorrence.
