More quotes by Barack Obama
None of this is fair to you. And should it continue, it will make it more difficult to keep attracting the kind of driven, patriotic, idealist Americans to public service that our citizens deserved and that our system of self-government demands.
Barack Obama
The more we are using clean energy, renewable energy sources, the less environmentally problematic facilities end up being a problem for everybody, but particularly for folks who have to suffer the consequences of some of these facilities.
Barack Obama
So we don't need more top-down economics. We've tried that theory. We've seen what happens. We can't afford to go back to it.
Barack Obama
What we shouldn't be doing is trying to take away your rights to bargain for better wages or working conditions... These so-called right to work laws, they don't have to do with economics they have everything to do with politics. What they're really talking about is giving you the right to work for less money.
Barack Obama
If you only think about yourself - how much money can I make, what can I buy, how nice is my house, what kind of fancy car do I have? - over the long term, I think, you get bored. I think your life becomes diminished. The way to live a full life is to think: What can I do for others?
Barack Obama
Unless you're one of the first Americans, a Native American, you came from someplace else. Somebody brought you.
Barack Obama
My question would be whether there is active persecution of atheists.
Barack Obama
Granting such immunity undermines the constitutional protections Americans trust the Congress to protect.
Barack Obama
I stand here today as hopeful as ever that the United States of America will endure, that it will prevail, that the dream of our founders will live on in our time.
Barack Obama
What is the empathy deficit? The inability of people to stand in other folks shoes. It's hard to empathize with people who have different values than you
Barack Obama
We're going to achieve our goal. We are going to degrade and ultimately defeat ISIL.
Barack Obama
The presidency has a funny way of making a person feel the need to pray.
Barack Obama
We've been able to organize the international community around it in ways that aren't going to go back.
Barack Obama
There was never a promise that race relations in America would be entirely resolved during my presidency or anybody's presidency. I mean, this has been a running thread - and - and fault line in American life and American politics since its founding.
Barack Obama
How you staff, particularly the chief of staff, the national security adviser, your White House counsel, how you set up a process in the system to surface information and generate options for a president, understanding that ultimately the president is going to be the final decision-maker. That's something that has to be attended to right away.
Barack Obama
Iran is the latest expression of a deep, ancient, powerful culture that's different than ours. And we don't know how it's going to play itself out.
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
Here in the United States, hopefully, what we're building are not just pyramids, are not icons to one pharaoh. What we're building is a culture and a way of living together that we can look back on and say, [This] was good, was inclusive, was kind, was innovative, was able to fulfill the dreams of as many people as possible.
Barack Obama
As long as I'm president of the United States Iran will not get a nuclear weapon. I made that clear when I came into office.
Barack Obama
Our journey is not complete until we find a better way to welcome the striving, hopeful immigrants who still see America as a land of opportunity, until bright young students and engineers are enlisted in our workforce rather than expelled from our country.
Barack Obama
