America, this is our moment. This is our time. Our time to turn the page on the policies of the past. Our time to bring new energy and new ideas to the challenges we face. Our time to offer a new direction for the country we love.

More quotes by Barack Obama
Washington is a place where good ideas go to die.
Barack Obama
I find it amusing that those who helped to authorize and engineer the biggest foreign policy disaster in our generation are now criticizing me for making sure that we are on the right battlefield and not the wrong battlefield in the war against terrorism.
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
One of the things that I am concerned about is the degree to which we've seen a lot of commentary lately where there were, there are Republicans or pundits or cable commentators who seemed to have more confidence in Vladimir Putin than fellow Americans because those fellow Americans were Democrats. That cannot be.
Barack Obama
That is the American story. People, just like you, following their passions, determined to meet the times on their own terms. They weren't doing it for the money. Their titles weren't fancy. But they changed the course of history and so can you.
Barack Obama
The one thing I've said to [Donald Trump] directly, and I would advise my Republican friends in Congress and supporters around the country, is just make sure that, as we go forward certain norms, certain institutional traditions don't get eroded, because there's a reason they're in place.
Barack Obama
You have to be involved in terms of what's happening in your local neighborhood and what issues are there.
Barack Obama
I want every young man who sees me to know that I'm not that different from them. I wasn't born into wealth. I wasn't born into fame. I made a lot of mistakes - but I kept at it.
Barack Obama
Throughout history, Islam has demonstrated through words and deeds the possibilities of religious tolerance and racial equality.
Barack Obama
Our nation owes a debt to its fallen heroes that we can never fully repay, but we can honor their sacrifice.
Barack Obama
It's one of the biggest benefits of being president that you really don't think about until you get here.
Barack Obama
With patient and firm determination, I am going to press on for jobs. I'm going to press on for equality. I'm going to press on for the sake of our children. I'm going to press on for the sake of all those families who are struggling right now. I don't have time to feel sorry for myself. I don't have time to complain. I am going to press on.
Barack Obama
... our interests and our conscience compel us to act on behalf of those who long for freedom. And we must be a source of hope to the poor, the sick, the marginalized, the victims of prejudice.
Barack Obama
Here in Europe, I think that there are a lot of young people who forget the issues that were at stake during the Cold War.
Barack Obama
I think the Prime Minister is the first to acknowledge that Malaysia's still got some work to do. Just like the United States, by the way, has some work to do on these issues. Human Rights Watch probably has a list of things they think we should be doing as a government.
Barack Obama
Every single one of you has something you're good at. Every single one of you has something to offer. And you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is. That's the opportunity an education can provide.
Barack Obama
What we should be asking is not whether we need a big government or small government, but how we can create a smarter and better government.
Barack Obama
If there's even one thing we can do - even one life we can save - we have an obligation to try
Barack Obama
I am a little jet lagged from my trip to Malaysia...The lengths we have to go to to get CNN coverage these days.
Barack Obama
You don't like dealing with somebody who denies horrible things happening to your people or threatens future horrible things to your people.
Barack Obama
