"all men are created equal"
It is an example that demonstrates, by its very existence, that an assertion is false. Usually experience suggests that the assertion is true: there is a large amount of supporting "evidence" but the statement has not been proven. The counter-example, though demolishes the assertion For example: Assertion: all prime numbers are odd. Counter example: 2. It is a prime but it is not odd. Therefore the assertion is false. This was a favourite "trap" at GCSE exams in the UK. Assertion: if you divide a nuber it becomes smaller. Counter example 1: 2 divided by a half is, in fact, 4. Counter example 2: -10 divided by 2 is -5 (which is larger by being less negative).

To write an assertion you introduce the quote or example, document the quote or example, then add commentary. If it is a quote from a book, then it will look like this. Intro to quote. "Quote" then (page # in parenthesis) then a period. Commentary (why you picked the quote, about the quote, etc). Hope this helped! =)
