More quotes by Barack Obama
I do think Brexit vote speaks to the ongoing changes and challenges that are raised by globalisation.
Barack Obama
One of the things that you learn, having been in this [President's] office for four years, is the old adage of Abraham Lincoln's. That with public opinion there's nothing you can't do and without public opinion there's very little you can get done.
Barack Obama
I would say of all the things that have happened during the course of my presidency the knowledge that you have hundreds of thousands of people who have been killed, millions who have been displaced, [makes me] ask myself what might I have done differently along the course of the last five, six years.
Barack Obama
The Gulf States are extraordinarily suspicious of Iran for good reason. They view Iran as meddling in their affairs. They have seen Iran level asymmetric attacks against their facilities or their interests.
Barack Obama
I put forward a budget of what I called middle-class economics that continues to be fiscally prudent but makes necessary investments for us to continue the economic momentum and job growth.
Barack Obama
I think that when it comes to Social Security, all of us want to make sure that our senior citizens can retire with dignity and respect. And everybody has to be open-minded in thinking how do we firm up a system that, in fact, is going to be in difficulty in the coming years.
Barack Obama
In December, I agreed to extend the tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans because it was the only way I could prevent a tax hike on middle-class Americans. But we cannot afford $1 trillion worth of tax cuts for every millionaire and billionaire in our society. We can't afford it. And I refuse to renew them again.
Barack Obama
There's no one who I believe has ever captured the soul of America more profoundly than Abraham Lincoln has.
Barack Obama
I believe that we have better ideas. But I also believe that good ideas don't matter if people don't hear them.
Barack Obama
Part of America's genius has always been its ability to absorb newcomers, to forge a national identity out of the disparate lot that arrived on our shores.
Barack Obama
There may be no greater tribute to Steve Jobs' success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented.
Barack Obama
All of us - we should do everything we can to make sure this country lives up to our children's expectations.
Barack Obama
One thing I think we have to do is to make sure that the undocumented workers who are living in America today, that they have to take responsibility. They've got to register, pay a fine, pay their back taxes, learn English and then get on a pathway in which they could have the prospect of being here legally.
Barack Obama
[We should beware] that our democracy stays healthy. And making sure that we maintain that sense of solidarity.
Barack Obama
Whatever we think of the past, we must not be prisoners to it.
Barack Obama
Every president who has tried to bring about big changes I think elicits the most passionate responses.
Barack Obama
[People] are looking for some means of control and what that means is is that the politics in all of our countries is gonna require us to manage technology and global integration and all these demographic shifts in a way that makes people feel more control, that gives them more confidence in their future.
Barack Obama
A change is brought about because ordinary people do extraordinary things.
Barack Obama
As Americans, we can take enormous pride in the fact that courage has been inspired by our own struggle for freedom, by the tradition of democratic law secured by our forefathers and enshrined in our Constitution. It is a tradition that says all men are created equal under the law and that no one is above it.
Barack Obama
It is my strong belief that Israel has not just the right but the obligation to protect itself.
Barack Obama
