In calculus, the sum rule in integration states that the integral of a sum of two functions is equal to the sum of their integrals. It is of particular use for the integration of sums, and is one part of the linearity of integration.
As with many properties of integrals in calculus, the sum rule applies both to definite integrals and indefinite integrals. For indefinite integrals, the sum rule states

“The sum of the whole matter is this, that our civilization cannot survive materially unless it be redeemed spiritually.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
“If all political power be derived only from Adam, and be to descend only to his successive heirs, by the ordinance of God and divine institution, this is a right antecedent and paramount to all government; and therefore the positive laws of men cannot determine that, which is itself the foundation of all law and government, and is to receive its rule only from the law of God and nature.”
