I think I'm probably more typical of the average American who doesn't have a connection to a military community.
Michelle Obama
Image
The idea that we are our brother's keeper and our sister's keeper. That we should treat others as we would want to be treated. And that we care for the sick... feed the hungry... and welcome the stranger... no matter where they come from, or how they practice their faith.
Michelle Obama

Countries are stronger and more prosperous when the voices and opinions of all their citizens can be heard.
Michelle Obama

I am only as good as my children are.
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.

But, as potentially the first African American first lady, I was also the focus of another set of questions and speculations conversations sometimes rooted in the fears and misperceptions of others. Was I too loud, or too angry, or too emasculating? Or was I too soft, too much of a mom, not enough of a career woman?

I've seen how the issues that come across a president's desk are always the hard ones - the problems where no amount of data or numbers will get you to the right answer.
Michelle Obama
Image
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
Image
My happiness is tied to how I feel about myself.
Michelle Obama
Image
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
Image
We're going to have to change our traditions, our history.
Michelle Obama
Image
We learned about dignity and decency - that how hard you work matters more than how much you make... that helping others means more than just getting ahead yourself.
Michelle Obama
Image
There is nothing more important to this nation's future than investing in our young people.

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?

'Let's Move!' is not about having government tell people what to do, because government doesn't have all the answers.
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.
