He Who Transplanted Still Sustains
The State Motto
"Qui Transtulit Sustinet"
The motto "Qui Transtulit Sustinet," (He Who Transplanted Still Sustains), has been associated with the various versions of the seal from the creation of the Saybrook Colony Seal. While the origin of the motto is uncertain, the late Charles J. Hoadly, a former State Librarian, suggested in an article entitled "The Public Seal of Connecticut," which appeared in the 1889 edition of the Connecticut State Register and Manual, that we look to the 80th Psalm as a possible source. "Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it."
Or
Connecticut’s motto has figured on its emblems, from the original Saybrook seal to its present state flag.

State Motto
Connecticut’s state motto is Qui Transtulit Sustinet. Translated from Latin, it means “He who transplanted still sustains.” The word “He” is generally considered to refer to God, who the colonists believed had “transplanted” them from England to the New World, where he continued to sustain them.
No one knows the origin of the motto. However, a former Connecticut State Librarian named Charles J. Hoadly wrote an article (“The Public Seal of Connecticut,” Connecticut State Register and Manual, 1889 edition), which suggested it might have been inspired by the 80th Psalm: “Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.
