More quotes by Barack Obama
I think that sometimes the Democrats have to run upstream or swim upstream because we've got the Republicans making it out as if we don't care about these things, and we should be able to engage and be willing to engage in the discussion about morality and values.
Barack Obama
I have Muslim members of my family. I have lived in Muslim countries.
Barack Obama
I remember reading [ Studs Terkel's] Working when it first came out and just finding that very powerful. I was going into community organizing. What stuck was to reveal the sacredness of ordinary people's lives. That everybody has a story. And I think Studs is terrific at drawing out that shimmering quality of people's everyday struggles.
Barack Obama
He [Barack Obama] might have a pen, and he might have a phone, but what he does not have is the constitutional power to run this country like a dictator.
Barack Obama
The program grew out of a desire to address a gap identified after 9/11 ... The program does not involve the NSA examining the phone records of ordinary Americans. Rather, it consolidates these records into a database that the government can query if it has a specific lead - phone records that the companies already retain for business purposes.
Barack Obama
The values that we talked about, the values democracy and free speech and international norms and rule of law, respecting the ability of other countries to determine their own destiny and preserve their sovereignty and territorial integrity. Things are not something that we can set aside.
Barack Obama
For we, the people, understand that our country cannot succeed when a shrinking few do very well and a growing many barely make it.
Barack Obama
I believe in the redemptive death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Barack Obama
Every woman should be in control of the decisions that affect her own health.
Barack Obama
What is portrayed as high-minded positions on issues sometimes is just designed to carve out some of their commercial interests.
Barack Obama
Issues are never simple. One thing I'm proud of is that very rarely will you hear me simplify the issues.
Barack Obama
You have to exercise, or at some point you'll just break down.
Barack Obama
This week I've travelled more than 15,000 miles from America to China to Burma to Australia. I have no idea what time it is right now.
Barack Obama
Focusing your life solely on making a buck shows a poverty of ambition. It asks too little of yourself. And it will leave you unfulfilled.
Barack Obama
I think it was not a bad idea to wrap Barack Obama in the mantle of Teddy Roosevelt. He`s been assuming a sort of progressive mantle, and he ticked off some large and systemic problems that this country faces.
Barack Obama
People are very hungry for something new. I think they are interested in being called to be a part of something larger than the sort of small, petty, slash-and-burn politics that we have been seeing over the last several years.
Barack Obama
The world must come together to confront climate change. There is little scientific dispute that if we do nothing, we will face more drought, famine and mass displacement that will fuel more conflict for decades.
Barack Obama
There's no doubt that I'm a better president now than when I first took office. This is not a job where there's a manual, and over time you get a better sense of what's important, what's not, how to see around corners and anticipate problems, as opposed to just managing problems once they've arrived.
Barack Obama
Historically - when you look at how America has evolved, typically we make progress on race relations in fits and starts. We make some progress, and then there's maybe some slippage.
Barack Obama
The forces that divide us are not as strong as those that unite us.
Barack Obama
