More quotes by Barack Obama
As citizens, we understand that it is not about what America may do for us. It's about what can be done by us, together.
Barack Obama

One of the hardest things in politics is to convince people to do things now that will have a good effect 20 or 30 years from now because politicians tend to have a short-term view. They are more attentive to things that people care about today.
Barack Obama
Every decision, every debate, no matter how important it is, with the same question: 'What does this mean for the next election? What does it mean for your poll numbers? Is this good for the Democrats or good for the Republicans? Who won the news cycle?' That's just how Washington is. They can't help it. They're obsessed with the sport of politics.
Barack Obama

If you have health care, my plan will lower your premiums. If you don't, you'll be able to get the same kind of coverage that members of Congress give themselves.
Barack Obama
But race is an issue that I believe this nation cannot afford to ignore right now. We would be making the same mistake that Reverend Wright made in his offending sermons about America - to simplify and stereotype and amplify the negative to the point that it distorts reality.
Barack Obama
Each path to knowledge involves different rules and these rules are not interchangeable.
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
There isn't anyone who can't serve ... nobody who can't help somebody else.
Barack Obama
Ensuring that the US continues to lead the world in science and technology will be a central priority for my administration.
Barack Obama
The biggest deficit that we have in our society and in the world right now is an empathy deficit. We are in great need of people being able to stand in somebody else's shoes and see the world through their eyes.
Barack Obama
And I agree that the Democratic legislators in Massachusetts might have given some advice to Republicans in Congress about how to cooperate, but the fact of the matter is we used the same advisers and they say it's the same plan.
Barack Obama
I believe marriage is between a man and a woman. I am not in favor of gay marriage.
Barack Obama
Ultimately there is no dividing line between Main Street and Wall Street. We will rise or we will fall together as one nation.
Barack Obama
