There is a clause written before the Bill of Rights which basically states in modern english, that the following rights are yours and cannot be taken away, but it does not necessarily mean these the only rights you have. This was done to insure that a) people would not confuse the Bill of Rights as a form of oppression and b) later amendments that guaranteed rights could be added to the Constitution.
