The official motto of South Carolina is "Dum Spiro Spero" which means "While I Breathe I Hope" in Latin. The phrase has been used by South Carolina since 1776, when it was first adopted as part of the state's seal. The phrase was inspired by the ideals of freedom and hope that were shared among the American colonists during the American Revolution. The phrase has come to represent South Carolina's resilience and optimism, and is a reminder that even during hard times, hope is never lost.
