More quotes by Barack Obama
The fact that there is a robust debate in Congress is good. The fact that the debate sometimes seems unanchored to facts is not so good.
Barack Obama
By some estimates, the oil you recently discovered off the shores of Brazil could amount to twice the reserves we have in the United States. We want to work with you. We want to help with technology and support to develop these oil reserves safely, and when you're ready to start selling, we want to be one of your best customers.
Barack Obama
All across the world, ...increasingly dangerous weather patterns and devastating storms are abruptly putting an end to the long-running debate over whether or not climate change is real. Not only is it real, it's here, and its effects are giving rise to a frighteningly new global phenomenon: the man-made natural disaster.
Barack Obama
In order for us to solve many big problems around the world, it is in our interest to work with Russia and obtain their cooperation.
Barack Obama
Don't let your failures define you.
Barack Obama
Americans... still believe in an America where anything's possible - they just don't think their leaders do.
Barack Obama
Not much happens in Russian Federation without Vladimir Putin.
Barack Obama
I make no apologies for us wanting to do this [bombing Iraq and Syria] appropriately and in a way that is consistent with American values.
Barack Obama
Here in Europe, I think that there are a lot of young people who forget the issues that were at stake during the Cold War.
Barack Obama
There's just a whole different attitude and vibe when you're not in power as when you're in power.
Barack Obama
For top executives to award themselves these kinds of compensation packages in the midst of this economic crisis isn't just bad taste, it's bad strategy, and I will not tolerate it as president.
Barack Obama
The reason we're governing right now is because we defeated moderate Republicans with moderate Democrats. And people need to be patient about that and realize that compromise is not evil.
Barack Obama
I have always believed that what brings us together is stronger than what pulls us apart.
Barack Obama
I think that we've had an economy that's been out of balance for too long. So the general principle of raising taxes on higher income Americans, like myself, and providing relief to those who haven't benefited as much from this new global economy, I think is a sound one.
Barack Obama
I find it hard to believe that my God would consign four-fifths of the world to hell. I can't imagine that my God would allow some little Hindu kid in India who never interacts with the Christian faith to somehow burn for all eternity. That's just not part of my religious makeup.
Barack Obama
What we can do is to shape how that process of global integration proceeds, so that it's increasing opportunity for ordinary people, so that it's creating better jobs, so that we are strengthening protections for workers, so that we are addressing some of the environmental challenges that come with rapid growth.
Barack Obama
We will outstretch the hand if you unclench your fist.
Barack Obama
The trick is figuring out how do we structure government systems that pool resources, and hence facilitate some [wealth] redistribution, because I actually believe in redistribution, at least at a certain level, to make sure that everybody's got a shot.
Barack Obama
Listening to evangelicals bridges major political fault line.
Barack Obama
It's true that I have not been able to completely close Guantanamo, but we've drastically reduced the population from 700 or so to around 60 now.
Barack Obama
