More quotes by Michelle Obama
It's important for us not to lose sight of the fact that this is a family that's grieving and there's been a tremendous loss. And we all have to rally around that piece of it.
Michelle Obama
People are always going to have opinions, and people have a right to their opinions, particularly when you're the First Lady you're representing the nation. I've tried to be at peace with the choices that I make first, and then be open to everyone else's reflection.
Michelle Obama
'Let's Move!' is not about having government tell people what to do, because government doesn't have all the answers.
Michelle Obama
I'm not a big fan of young kids having Facebook. It's not something they need. It's not necessary.
Michelle Obama
We have to design policies that have meaningful impacts on the quality of life of women and families. And that's something that I know I can speak passionately about because whether I'm in the White House as First Lady, as long as I have kids and I'm trying to have a life, I'm gonna be trying to make this balance work...
Michelle Obama
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.
Michelle Obama
For me exercise is more than just physical, it’s therapeutic.
Michelle Obama
If we truly believe that every girl in every corner of the globe is worthy of an education as our own daughters and granddaughters are, then we need to deepen our commitment to these efforts.
Michelle Obama
Do not bring people in your life who weigh you down. And trust your instincts ... good relationships feel good. They feel right. They don't hurt. They're not painful. That's not just with somebody you want to marry, but it's with the friends that you choose. It's with the people you surround yourselves with.
Michelle Obama
Barack knows the American Dream because he's lived it...and he wants everyone in this country to have that same opportunity, no matter who we are, or where we're from, or what we look like, or who we love.
Michelle Obama
To be a good parent, you need to take care of yourself so that you can have the physical and emotional energy to take care of your family.
Michelle Obama
I've always been a closet jock, but when I got married and had kids, that fell by the wayside.
Michelle Obama
At the end of the day, when it comes time to make that decision, as president, all you have to guide you are your values, and your vision, and the life experiences that make you who you are.
Michelle Obama
I am so tired of fear. And I don't want my girls to live in a country, in a world, based on fear.
Michelle Obama
Being healthy isn't about inches, pounds, or how kids look - it's about how they feel and making sure they feel good about themselves. So rather than focusing on appearance, it's important to emphasize to kids that when we eat healthy food and stay active, we feel better, and we can perform better in everything we do, from athletics to academics.
Michelle Obama
We're going to have to change our traditions, our history.
Michelle Obama
My husband and I make physical activity a priority in our lives, and our daughters love being active as well. And while we each have sports and activities we enjoy, we try to go for hikes or bike rides together whenever we get the chance. We've found that the best way to help our girls be active is to find activities they truly enjoy.
Michelle Obama
Kids, everybody can get behind. It's a bipartisan thing. We care about our kids' health. But the truth is, it's very important for us to talk to parents, in particular mothers, because it's really our self-esteem, it's our initiative.
Michelle Obama
Millions of Americans who know that Barack understands their dreams that Barack will fight for people like them and that Barack will finally bring the change we need.
Michelle Obama
We all need to start making some changes to how our families eat. Now, everyone loves a good Sunday dinner. Me included. And there's nothing wrong with that. The problem is when we eat Sunday dinner Monday through Saturday.
Michelle Obama
