More quotes by Barack Obama

Barack Obama
We will respond to the threat of climate change, knowing that the failure to do so would betray our children and future generations
Barack Obama
We don't quit. I don't quit. Let's seize this moment.
Barack Obama
Any discuss about taxes ends up being, are you raising them or lowering them, as the opposed to the question I ask - are we raising them for high income individuals that can afford it, and lowering them for lower income people who really need help. Those old categories don't work, and they're preventing us from solving them problems.
Barack Obama
Even when our heart aches, we summon the strength that maybe we didn't even know we had, and we carry on we finish the race.
Barack Obama
I believe marriage is between a man and a woman. I am not in favor of gay marriage. But when you start playing around with constitutions, just to prohibit somebody who cares about another person, it just seems to me that's not what America's about. Usually, our constitutions expand liberties, they don't contract them.
Barack Obama
We've seen how militarized gear can sometimes give people a feeling like there's an occupying force, as opposed to a force that's part of the community that's protecting them and serving them.
Barack Obama
That sort of lack of awareness on the part of an activist about the constraints of our political system and the constraints on this office, I think, sometimes would leave me to mutter under my breath. Very rarely did I lose it publicly. Yeah, usually I'd just smile.
Barack Obama
It's the idea held by generations of citizens who believed that America is a constant work in progress who believed that loving this country requires more than singing its praises or avoiding uncomfortable truths. It requires the occasional disruption, the willingness to speak out for what's right, and shake up the status quo.
Barack Obama
Israel is our friend, that we will assist in their security.
Barack Obama
Politics, differences of religion or race, all that fades away when we are confronted with the awesome power of nature, and we're reminded that all we have is each other.
Barack Obama
It is in the interests of all of us - the United States, China and the rest of the world - to make sure that the rules of the road are upheld. These rules and norms are part of the foundation of regional stability, and they have allowed nations across the region, including China, to grow and prosper.
Barack Obama
We cannot allow internet service providers to restrict the best access or to pick winners and losers in the online marketplace for services and ideas.
Barack Obama
On Easter I do reflect on the fact that as a Christian I am supposed to love, and I have to say that sometimes, when I've listened to less-than-loving expressions by Christians, I get concerned.
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 terror attacks have reshaped the campaign and may have given another boost to Donald Trump.
Barack Obama
With respect to the Internet and emails, this does not apply to U.S. citizens and it does not apply to people living in the United States.
Barack Obama
I honor, we honor the service of John McCain, and I respect his many accomplishments, even if he chooses to deny mine. My differences with him are not personal they are with the policies he has proposed in this campaign.
Barack Obama
If you think that we've overregulated in the environmental space what I can show you is that we have tripled the amount of wind power in this country, increased by tenfold the amount of solar power. We are producing as much oil and gas as we've ever produced.
Barack Obama
That is another theme in the book [Dreams from My Father]. How do we exercise more empathy in our public discourse? How do we get the black to see through the eyes of the white? Or the citizen to see through the eyes of the immigrant? Or the straight to see through the eyes of the gay? That has always been a struggle in our politics.
Barack Obama
