The quote from the Declaration of Independence that reflects the colonists' belief that government derives its authority from the people is: "Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed." This statement emphasizes the idea that a legitimate government must have the approval and support of the people it serves, asserting the principle of popular sovereignty as a foundation for political authority.

Constitution
Looks like rain.
The quote is, "We the people of the United States in order to form a more perfect union..." It comes from the Preamble of The Constitution of The United States of The United States of America.
This quote is found in the Preamble of the U.S. Constitution. The Constitution was written by a committee of people, including Alexander Hamilton, William Johnson, Rufus King, and James Madison. But the author of the Constitution was Gouverneur Morris, and is usually given credit for this quote.
Publish it. If you're not famous, the only way to really get credit for the quote is to publish the quote in a book, magazine, newspaper, etc.. However, just because you have credit for the quote doesn't mean that the quote will become popular. Most quotes become popular because of the people who said it, not necessarily due to any intricate truth or beauty behind the quote.
It is important to properly attribute the quote by mentioning the original author and the source. Additionally, ensure that the quote is used in context and accurately represents the author's intended meaning.
