More quotes by Barack Obama
American values and legal traditions do not permit the indefinite detention of people beyond our borders.
Barack Obama
Few artists have influenced the sound and trajectory of popular music more distinctly, or touched quite so many people with their talent. A strong spirit transcends rules,' Prince once said - and nobody's spirit was stronger, bolder, or more creative. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, his band, and all who loved him.
Barack Obama
That support has been so constant and gracious and loving. Michelle and I have never felt as if, at any stage, folks didn't have our backs. And as a consequence, I think that just spurred us on that much more to make us want to do the right thing, and do our best in the positions that we have.
Barack Obama
Isil poses a threat to the people of Iraq and Syria, and the broader Middle East - including American citizens, personnel and facilities. If left unchecked, these terrorists could pose a growing threat beyond that region, including to the United States.
Barack Obama
There are people in Iran who have the same aspirations as people all around the world for a better life.
Barack Obama
Part of the reason that our politics seems so tough right now and facts and science and argument does not seem to be winning the day all the time is because we're hardwired not to always think clearly when we're scared. And the country's scared.
Barack Obama
At some fundamental level, religion does not allow for compromise. It insists on the impossible. If God has spoken, then followers are expected to live up to God's edicts, regardless of the consequences. To base one's life on such uncompromising commitment may be sublime to base our policy making on such commitments would be a dangerous thing.
Barack Obama
My central focus is what are we doing to protect the American people and the American homeland? Afghanistan and Pakistan are critical elements in that process.
Barack Obama
If we get to a point where people in this country feel more affinity with a leader who is an adversary and view the United States and our way of life as a threat to him, then we're gonna have bigger problems than just cyber hacking.
Barack Obama
Insurance companies, drug companies are going to have to be ponying up, partly because right now they're receiving huge subsidies.
Barack Obama
People don't expect government to solve all their problems. But they sense, deep in their bones, that with just a slight change in priorities, we can make sure that every child in America has a decent shot at life, and that the doors of opportunity remain open to all. They know we can do better.
Barack Obama
The Affordable Care Act is here to stay.
Barack Obama
We've achieved this historic progress through diplomacy, without resorting to another war in the Middle East. I want to also point out that by working with Iran on this nuclear deal, we were better able to address other issues.
Barack Obama
[J]ust because you have an individual right does not mean that the state or local government can't constrain the exercise of that right.
Barack Obama
When I've sent young men and women into harm's way, I always understand that that is the last resort, not the first resort.
Barack Obama
The fact that there is a robust debate in Congress is good. The fact that the debate sometimes seems unanchored to facts is not so good.
Barack Obama
We know hackers steal people's identities and infiltrate private e-mails. We know foreign countries and companies swipe our corporate secrets.
Barack Obama
After a breakthrough year for America, our economy is growing and creating jobs at the fastest pace since 1999.
Barack Obama
I'm LeBron, baby. I can play on this level. I got some game.
Barack Obama
We have to make sure America writes the rules of the global economy, and we should do it today while our economy is in the position of global strength, because if we don't write the rules for trade around the world, guess what: China will.
