If there's one thing I would like to see, it'd be for us to be able to price the cost of carbon emissions.
Barack Obama
We have an obligation and a responsibility to be investing in our students and our schools. We must make sure that people who have the grades, the desire and the will, but not the money, can still get the best education possible.
Barack Obama
The best judge of whether or not a country is going to develop is how it treats its women. If it's educating its girls, if women have equal rights, that country is going to move forward. But if women are oppressed and abused and illiterate, then they're going to fall behind.
Barack Obama
Greatness is never free it must be earned.

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
The fact is every single day in the ordinary American people, America's families have to make decisions about their families and that should be made by them, not by the Texas or United States.
Barack Obama
Life takes its own turns, makes its own demands, writes its own story, and along the way, we start to realize we are not the author.
Barack Obama
Trump is not somebody who`s fit to be president in any circumstances. I would feel deeply frustrated, not because anything he said about me, but because I would fear for the future of our country.
Barack Obama
America’s possibilities are limitless, for we possess all the qualities that this world without boundaries demands: youth and drive diversity and openness an endless capacity for risk and a gift for reinvention. My fellow Americans, we are made for this moment, and we will seize it - so long as we seize it together.
Barack Obama
How do we in the African American community build a culture in which we are saying to our kids, Here's what it takes to succeed. Here's the sacrifices you need to make to be able to get ahead. Here's how we support each other. Here's how we look out for each other.
Barack Obama
Let's make two things clear: Isil is not Islamic. No religion condones the killing of innocents, and the vast majority of Isil's victims have been Muslim. And Isil is certainly not a state.
Barack Obama
It's no wonder that America's engagement in the region has strong, sustained, bipartisan support. So I'll be handing my successor a strong foundation - including closer ties with Singapore - on which to continue building, and I'm optimistic that will happen.
Barack Obama
