More quotes by Barack Obama
And to those nations like ours that enjoy relative plenty, we say we can no longer afford indifference to the suffering outside our borders nor can we consume the world's resources without regard to effect. For the world has changed, and we must change with it.
Barack Obama
With respect to Syria, we are going to continue to work as we have over the last five, six years to push towards a political transition and settlement.
Barack Obama
A relentless focus on the outward markers of success can lead to complacency. It can make you lazy.
Barack Obama
Like Joe Biden and so many other Americans, I've lost people I love deeply to cancer. I've heard often from those whose loved ones are suffering from Alzheimer's, addiction, and other debilitating diseases. Their heartbreak is real, and so we have a responsibility to respond with real solutions.
Barack Obama
[The] United States is proud to stand with you as your strongest ally and greatest friend. I see this visit as an opportunity to reaffirm the unbreakable bond between our nations, to restate America's unwavering commitment to Israel's security, and to speak directly to Israel and to your neighbors.
Barack Obama

Our nation owes a debt to its fallen heroes that we can never fully repay, but we can honor their sacrifice.
Barack Obama
We were just at the beginnings of a recovery [in 2010]. And the, you know, whoever is president at that point is gonna get hit and his party's gonna get hit. That then means that suddenly you've got a redistricting in which a lot of state legislatures are now Republican. They draw lines that give a huge structural advantage in subsequent elections.
Barack Obama
ISIS is not an organization that can destroy the United States. This is not a huge industrial power that can pose great risks to us, institutionally or in a systematic way. But they can hurt us. And they can hurt our people and our families.
Barack Obama
Isil poses a threat to the people of Iraq and Syria, and the broader Middle East - including American citizens, personnel and facilities. If left unchecked, these terrorists could pose a growing threat beyond that region, including to the United States.
Barack Obama
Together we resolve that a great nation must care for the vulnerable and protect its people from life's worst hazards and misfortune.
Barack Obama
A nuclear Iran is a threat to America's national security, and it is a threat to Israel's national security. We cannot afford to have a nuclear arms race in the most volatile region of the world.
Barack Obama
The friendship that we established early on in our marriage ... that carries you through tough times. That and a good sense of humor.
Barack Obama
One thing both men have in common is a love of golf and a shared knowledge of the word mulligan, which means a do-over to replace a lousy shot.
Barack Obama
The best education I received was working with people in the community on a grassroots basis. Because what it taught me was that ordinary people, when they are working together can do extraordinary things.
Barack Obama
I think that dealing with guns is one way to handle the violent-crime issues that we have in this country.
Barack Obama
Sometimes when these kinds of things happen, it can seem a little bit too much to bear. But what I want the people of Louisiana know is that you're not alone on this. Even after the TV cameras leave, the whole country is going to continue to support you and help you until we get folks back in their homes and lives are rebuilt.
Barack Obama
We believe that big nations should not bully smaller nations, and that the sovereignty of nations must be respected. And we have long urged that disputes be resolved peacefully, including through mechanisms like international arbitration.
Barack Obama
If we are enforcing what should be the rules around Medicare and making sure the people are getting the bang for the buck, it's not going to be possible for insurance companies to simply pass on those costs to Medicare recipients, because ultimately it's Uncle Sam that's paying for those services anyway.
Barack Obama
While freedom is a gift from God, it must be secured by his people here on earth.
Barack Obama
