The Preamble of the Declaration of Independence is, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness."

John LOCKE's idea of natural rights were that of Life, Liberty and Property. He also believed all men were created equal. Jefferson uses the idea of natural rights in the preamble of the Declaration of Independence in the belief that all men are created equal, and are endowed with unalienable rights such as Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.
