More quotes by Barack Obama
Africa doesn't need strongmen, it needs strong institutions.
Barack Obama
Military surge in Afghanistan to eliminate the Taliban.
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
The truth is that, in trying to get at terrorists who are in countries that either are unwilling or unable to capture those terrorists or disable them themselves, there are a lot of situations where the use of a drone is going to result in much fewer civilian casualties and much less collateral damage than if I send in a battalion of marines.
Barack Obama
Democracy demands that the religiously motivated translate their concerns into universal, rather than religion-specific, values.
Barack Obama
Get involved in an issue that you're passionate about. It almost doesn't matter what it is ... We give too much of our power away, to the professional politicians, to the lobbyists, to cynicism. And our democracy suffers as a result.
Barack Obama
The very technologies that empower us to do great good can also be used to undermine us and inflict great harm.
Barack Obama
Fighting for what you think is right is always worth it.
Barack Obama
This is where I think policies do need to be somewhat race-specific, is making sure that institutions are not discriminatory. So you've got something like the FHA [Federal Housing Administration], which was on its face a universal program that involved a huge mechanism for wealth accumulation and people entering into the middle class.
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
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
We have proved that the true strength of our nation comes not from the scale of our wealth but from the power of our ideals - opportunity, democracy, liberty and hope.
Barack Obama
I can say with confidence that I never bought into the hype, and I made sure that the people around me didn't buy into the hype, and I did not surround myself with people who fed me the hype. And I'm glad of that as well.
Barack Obama
The first thing I would do would be to move forward with an agenda to make sure that we give D.C. the opportunity to elect its own representatives and have some political power on Capitol Hill.
Barack Obama
I think the Turks' willingness to take seriously action on the borders to stop the flow of foreign fighters joining ISIL is significant.
Barack Obama
We don't turn back. We leave no one behind. We pull each other up.
Barack Obama
Public school system status quo is indefensible.
Barack Obama
In the face of impossible odds, people who love this country can change it.
Barack Obama
They, and we, are the legacies of an unbroken chain of proud men and women who served their country with honor, who waged war so that we might know peace, who braved hardship so that we might know opportunity, who paid the ultimate price so that we might know freedom.
Barack Obama
For the United States of America, the best is yet to come.
Barack Obama
