More quotes by Barack Obama
I'm never surprised by controversies that are whipped up in Washington.
Barack Obama
What we have done, I think, is build a model from a lot of hard lessons in Afghanistan and Iraq but in other places around the world, where we are working with them in an advisory capacity.
Barack Obama
A free market was never meant to be a free licence to take whatever you can get, however you can get it.
Barack Obama
What is true is [Bashar] Assad got rid of his chemical weapons.
Barack Obama
What makes you a man is not the ability to make a child, it's the courage to raise one.
Barack Obama
There’s no doubt that there’s some folks who just really dislike me because they don’t like the idea of a black President.
Barack Obama
For as much as government can do and must do, it is ultimately the faith and determination of the American people upon which this nation relies. So let us mark this day with remebrance, of who we are and how far we have traveled.
Barack Obama
What Washington needs is adult supervision.
Barack Obama
For now, decisions are upon us and we cannot afford delay. We cannot mistake absolutism for principle or substitute spectacle for politics, or treat name-calling as reasoned debate.
Barack Obama
What a vindication of the belief that ordinary people can do extraordinary things, what a reminder of what Bobby Kennedy once said, about how small actions can be like pebbles being thrown into a still lake, and ripples of hope cascade outwards and change the world.
Barack Obama
The worst thing that colonialism did was to cloud our view of our past.
Barack Obama
Focusing your life solely on making a buck shows a poverty of ambition. It asks too little of yourself. And it will leave you unfulfilled.
Barack Obama
There is no excuse for not trying.
Barack Obama
Iran has agreed to deepen our coordination as we work to locate Robert Levinson, missing from Iran for more than eight years. Even as we rejoice in the safe return of others, we will never forget about Bob. Each and every day our hearts are with the Levinson family, and we will not rest until their family is whole again.
Barack Obama
I have been in Washington for a while now, and most things don't surprise me. The fact that twenty 6-year-olds were gunned down in the most violent fashion possible and this town couldn't do anything about it was stunning to me.
Barack Obama
I think the most important thing is to take the long view on things. We live in such a 24/7, Twitter-fed, constant news cycle, and everything's a crisis, everything is terrible, everything is doomsday, everything is - if it doesn't get solved tomorrow, your presidency is going off the rails.
Barack Obama
We have known for decades that our survival depends on finding new sources of energy. Yet we import more oil today than ever before.
Barack Obama
We want our children to live in an America that isn't burdened by debt, that isn't weakened by inequality, that isn't threatened by the destructive power of a warming planet.
Barack Obama
Our country was born out of a desire to be free. And every day since, it's been protected by our men and women in uniform - people who believed so deeply in America, they were willing to give their lives for it.
Barack Obama
One thing you learn in this job [being US President] is that even if something's not your fault, you're still responsible. And that's how it should be.
Barack Obama
