More quotes by Barack Obama
If you've got a business, you didn't build that. Somebody else made that happen.
Barack Obama
You can't always come up with the optimal solution, but you can usually come up with a better solution.
Barack Obama
I think that the issues we have with science these days are not restricted to what's happening with respect to religion. There are a lot of very religious scientists around.
Barack Obama
Come on! I just answered, like, eight questions.
Barack Obama
Even when folks are hitting you over the head, you can't stop marching. Even when they're turning the hoses on you, you can't stop.
Barack Obama
Elections matter and voting counts.
Barack Obama
Climate change constitutes a serious threat to global security, an immediate risk to our national security, and, make no mistake, it will impact how our military defends our country.
Barack Obama
And if we walk away now, if we simply retreat into our respective corners, we will never be able to come together and solve challenges like health care, or education, or the need to find good jobs for every American.
Barack Obama
Evil does exist in the world. A non-violent movement could not have halted Hitler's armies. Negotiations cannot convince al Qaeda's leaders to lay down their arms. To say that force may sometimes be necessary is not a call to cynicism - it is a recognition of history the imperfections of man and the limits of reason.
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
Our focus on the investigation is really wide-ranging. And we can't limit it to just one point in time.
Barack Obama
I think ultimately is, Donald Trump is pragmatic.
Barack Obama
One thing I think we have to do is to make sure that the undocumented workers who are living in America today, that they have to take responsibility. They've got to register, pay a fine, pay their back taxes, learn English and then get on a pathway in which they could have the prospect of being here legally.
Barack Obama
I think that most Americans don't resent people for getting rich. They want to get rich themselves.
Barack Obama
I'm blown away. I'm flabbergasted the president [Barack Obama] made the phone call to Rouhani after 30-plus, `79, 33 years or so. And there's a reason we haven't negotiated with Iran, because they're state-sponsored terrorists. They're the central bank for terrorism around the world.
Barack Obama
The problem is that, over time, big pieces of business that have to get done without leadership from Washington, don't get done.
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
The Internet didn't get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet. The point is, is that when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together.
Barack Obama
When I've sent young men and women into harm's way, I always understand that that is the last resort, not the first resort.
Barack Obama
We have to uphold a free press and freedom of speech - because, in the end, lies and misinformation are no match for the truth.
Barack Obama
