William H. Seward
"It is true, indeed, that the national domain is ours. It is true it was acquired by the valor and with the wealth of the whole nation. But we hold, nevertheless, no arbitrary power over it."

Power

Quote_1.png
William H. Seward
"I deem it established, then, that the Constitution does not recognize property in man, but leaves that question, as between the states, to the law of nature and of nations."

Nature

Quote_1.png
William H. Seward
"Therefore, states are equal in natural rights."

Rights

Quote_1.png
William H. Seward
"The right to have a slave implies the right in some one to make the slave; that right must be equal and mutual, and this would resolve society into a state of perpetual war."

Society

Quote_1.png
William H. Seward
"I mean to say that Congress can hereafter decide whether any states, slave or free, can be framed out of Texas. If they should never be framed out of Texas, they never could be admitted."

Politics

Quote_1.png
William H. Seward
"But you answer, that the Constitution recognizes property in slaves. It would be sufficient, then, to reply, that this constitutional recognition must be void, because it is repugnant to the law of nature and of nations."

"Sir, there is no Christian nation, thus free to choose as we are, which would establish slavery."

Christian

Quote_1.png
William H. Seward
"It is the maintenance of slavery by law in a state, not parallels of latitude, that makes its a southern state; and the absence of this, that makes it a northern state."

Absence

Quote_1.png
William H. Seward
"But there is a higher law than the Constitution, which regulates our authority over the domain, and devotes it to the same noble purposes."

Authority

Quote_1.png
William H. Seward
"But assuming the same premises, to wit, that all men are equal by the law of nature and of nations, the right of property in slaves falls to the ground; for one who is equal to another cannot be the owner or property of that other."
