You see, at the end of the day, my most important title is still 'mom-in-chief.' My daughters are still the heart of my heart and the center of my world.

More quotes by Michelle Obama
I joke that I stick with the job because it covers my insurance, but the reality is that my career has always been very important to me.
Michelle Obama
I think my mother taught me what not to do. She put us first, always, sometimes to the detriment of herself. She encouraged me not to do that. She'd say being a good mother isn't all about sacrificing it's really investing and putting yourself higher on your priority list.
Michelle Obama
When I'm unhappy with something, people know, because I don't want to hold on to it. I'd rather deal immediately with the stuff that bothers me, so using my network - my girlfriends, my husband, my mom - I talk a lot, I vent.
Michelle Obama
There are still many causes worth sacrificing for, so much history yet to be made.
Michelle Obama
Communities and countries and ultimately the world are only as strong as the health of their women.
Michelle Obama
You all have opportunities and skills and education that so many folks who came before you never could have dreamed of. So just imagine the kind of impact that you're going to make. Imagine how you can inspire those around you to reach higher and complete their own education.
Michelle Obama
Be passionate about something and lean to that strength.
Michelle Obama
It should be fun introducing kids to fruits and vegetables. If you start young, it will be something that they'll attach to really quickly.
Michelle Obama
I always want to be on the cusp of being in the best shape that I can be.
Michelle Obama
In the 10 cities with the nation's highest obesity rates, the direct costs connected with obesity and obesity-related diseases are roughly $50 million per 100,000 residents. And if these 10 cities just cut their obesity rates down to the national average, all added up they combine to save nearly $500 million in healthcare costs each year.
Michelle Obama
Fashion is not just about what we wear, but...fashion is also a business. It is an art, it's a career that involves science, engineering, accounting and so much more. People can learn about the math behind Charles James' designs, and think, 'Maybe I should pay closer attention to geometry this semester'
Michelle Obama
Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices we are going to have to change our conversation we're going to have to change our traditions, our history we're going to have to move into a different place.
Michelle Obama
We need all hands on deck, and that means clearing hurdles for women and girls as they navigate careers in science, technology, engineering, and math.
Michelle Obama
Fruits and vegetables for some kids are scary and not fun.
Michelle Obama
Education is the single-most important civil rights issue that we face today.
Michelle Obama
I've always tried to make sure that what I do really connects with the broader agenda of what my husband Barack Obama is trying to do.... But I also find that I have to be very passionate myself about the issue to be able to represent it well. One of the big issues that I've talked a lot about...is childhood health, nutrition and obesity.
Michelle Obama
Whether an illness affects your heart, your leg or your brain, it's still an illness, and there should be no distinction.
Michelle Obama
I look at how my kids view exercise. They have a complete understanding that nutrition and exercise go hand in hand. I didn't think like that when I was a kid. But they have a real consciousness about it that I'd like to think comes from the years of attention we've put into this.
Michelle Obama
Cute's good. But cute only lasts for so long, and then it's, 'Who are you as a person?' Look at the heart. Look at the soul. Look at how the guy treats his mother and what he says about women. How he acts with children he doesn't know. And, more important, how does he treat you?
Michelle Obama
I love that we can trust Barack to do what he says he's going to do, even when it's hard - especially when it's hard.
Michelle Obama
