Deepertruth: United We Stand, Divided We Fall

 United We Stand, Divided We Fall  Patrick Henry used the phrase in his last public speech, given in March 1799, in which he denounced The Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions. Clasping his hands and swaying unsteadily, Henry declaimed, "Let us trust God, and our better judgment to set us right hereafter. United we stand, divided we fall.

The state motto of Kentucky, "United we stand, divided we fall," was from a popular 1768 tune entitled the "Liberty Song," by John Dickinson.

“Out of many, one.” This is the literal translation for the motto of the United States of America. It was a motto suggested by a committee on July 4, 1776.

Although the U.S.'s motto was signed into law by a Christian president, federal courts have regularly upheld the motto as being in-line with the U.S. Constitution.
