More quotes by Barack Obama
One of the best parts of the holiday season is spending time with the special people in your life.
Barack Obama
One of the great things about our democracy is it expresses itself in all sorts of ways. And that includes people protesting. I've been the subject of protests during the course of my eight years and I suspect that there's not a president in our history that at some point hasn't been subject to these protests.
Barack Obama
We are defined not by our borders but by our bonds.
Barack Obama
I've been called worse on the basketball court.
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
Time is running out for Iran to address the international community's growing concerns about its nuclear program.
Barack Obama
Every woman should be in control of the decisions that affect her own health.
Barack Obama
Our combat mission is ending, but our commitment to Iraq's future is not.
Barack Obama
The most important thing we can do is to make sure that we are creating jobs in this country. But not just jobs, good paying jobs. Ones that can support a family.
Barack Obama
Every president who has tried to bring about big changes I think elicits the most passionate responses.
Barack Obama
A mother deserves a day off to care for a sick child or sick parent without running into hardship - and you know what, a father does, too. It's time to do away with workplace policies that belong in a 'Mad Men' episode.
Barack Obama
I get a thick book full of death, destruction, strife, and chaos. That's what I take with my morning tea.
Barack Obama
The greatest gift that Michelle and I have received over the last eight years has been the honor of serving as your President and First Lady. Together, we fought our way back from the worst recession in 80 years, and got unemployment to a nine-year low.
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
There is enormous continuity beneath the day-to-day news that makes America that indispensable nation when it comes to maintaining order and promoting prosperity around the world.
Barack Obama
There's no one who I believe has ever captured the soul of America more profoundly than Abraham Lincoln has.
Barack Obama
Our destiny is not written for us, but by us.
Barack Obama
Unfortunately, you've grown up hearing voices that incessantly warn of government as nothing more than some separate, sinister entity that's at the root of all our problems. Some of these same voices also do their best to gum up the works. They'll warn that tyranny is always lurking just around the corner. You should reject these voices.
Barack Obama
We cannot have a society, in which some dictator some place can start imposing censorship here in the United States.
Barack Obama
My mother was the one constant in my life. When I think about my mom raising me alone when she was 20, and working and paying the bills, and, you know, trying to pursue your own dreams, I think is a feat that is unmatched.
Barack Obama
