More quotes by Barack Obama
You don't like a particular policy or a particular president? Then argue for your position. Go out there and win an election. Push to change it. But don't break it. Don't break what our predecessors spent over two centuries building. That's not being faithful to what this country's about.
Barack Obama
Here at this site, Solyndra expects to make enough solar panels each year to generate 500 megawatts of electricity. And over the lifetime of this expanded facility, that could be like replacing as many as eight coal-fired power plants.
Barack Obama
It's easier to make negative attacks and simplistic slogans [in social media] than it is to communicate complex policies.
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

As you travel through the Middle East what keeps on striking home to me is how similar everyone is, and yet the degree to which we can find differences to fight wars over. It requires a great deal of empathy, I think, between various sides to overcome this history and live in peace.
Barack Obama
One of the best investments we can make in a child’s life is high-quality early education.
Barack Obama

Barack Obama
Change has come to America.
Barack Obama
The bottom line is that it's hard to find a model in which you can practically administer and sustain political support for those kinds of efforts. And what makes America complicated as well is the degree to which this is not just a black/white society, and it is becoming less so every year.
Barack Obama
... the fact is it didn't happen in the first month, the first six weeks, in a way that was at all acceptable. And since I'm in charge, obviously, we screwed it up.
Barack Obama
Healthcare system is broken without lifetime employment.
Barack Obama
With respect to some of the specific legislation or initiatives that I've made, it's true that Republicans often opposed these things. Sometimes they opposed them because I proposed them. Now that they are responsible for governing, I think they'll find that reversing them would be counterproductive.
Barack Obama
Reality has a way of asserting itself.
Barack Obama
I have to say that my kids, like every child in America, is completely absorbed with Harry Potter. And so, I have gotten sucked into it, too I can't wait for the next one to come out. I am trying to figure out what happens with Harry and Voldemort. So we have been reading that.
Barack Obama
I mean, I do think at a certain point you've made enough money.
Barack Obama
Sometimes they're nothing, sometimes they're something, sometimes there's a connection that years later may show up. All of this information is useful.
Barack Obama
We can still see God in other people and do our best to help them find their own grace. So that’s what I strive to do and pray to do every day.
Barack Obama
Public school system status quo is indefensible.
Barack Obama
In the United States, if 43 percent of eligible voters do not vote, then democracy is weakened.
