More quotes by Michelle Obama
I hate diversity workshops. “Real change comes from having enough comfort to be really honest and say something very uncomfortable.
Michelle Obama
Value everyone's contribution and treat everyone with respect.
Michelle Obama

Michelle Obama
I believe that each of us-no matter what our age or background or walk of life-each of us has something to contribute to the life of this nation.
Michelle Obama
Let me tell you something: for the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country, because it feels like hope is finally making a comeback.
Michelle Obama
We can make a commitment to promote vegetables and fruits and whole grains on every part of every menu. We can make portion sizes smaller and emphasize quality over quantity. And we can help create a culture - imagine this - where our kids ask for healthy options instead of resisting them.
Michelle Obama
I think I'm probably more typical of the average American who doesn't have a connection to a military community.
Michelle Obama
You shouldn't be in a relationship with somebody who doesn't make you completely happy and make you feel whole. And if you're in that relationship and you're dating, then my advice is, don't get married.
Michelle Obama

Michelle Obama
There is no magic to achievement. It's really about hard work, choices, and persistence.
Michelle Obama
It's hard to change adults, and it's hard to change it from a political position or a perceived political position.
Michelle Obama
The issues facing working women and their families are closest to my heart. I decided to focus intently on the challenges military wives face because they juggle the same pressures as their nonmilitary peers, all while coping as single parents while their loved ones are overseas. I wanted to help make their voices heard.
Michelle Obama
I am only as good as my children are.
Michelle Obama
The problem is when that fun stuff becomes the habit. And I think that's what's happened in our culture. Fast food has become the everyday meal.
Michelle Obama
We're going to have to change our traditions, our history.
Michelle Obama
Not everybody is going to run a marathon or do a triathlon. It's not necessary to do that to be in good health.
Michelle Obama
While budgets are tight right now, there are schools across the country that are showing that it doesn't take a whole lot of money or resources to give our kids the nutrition they deserve. What it does take, however, is effort. What it does take is imagination. What it does take is a commitment to our children's futures.
Michelle Obama
We need to do a better job of putting ourselves higher on our own 'to do' list.
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
Moving [to the White House], whatever stresses would be on my husband and me, we could handle we are grown-ups. But it wouldn't be until the day that my kids came home and said to me, I like it here, that I'd feel like I could breathe and know that we're all going to be okay here.
