Michelle Obama
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.

Michelle Obama

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
As a mom, I know it is my responsibility, and no one else's, to raise my kids. But we have to ask ourselves, what does it mean when so many parents are finding their best efforts undermined by an avalanche of advertisements aimed at our kids.

Michelle Obama
I'm not asking any of you to make drastic changes to every single one of your recipes or to totally change the way you do business. But what I am asking is that you consider reformulating your menu in pragmatic and incremental ways to create healthier versions of the foods that we all love.
Michelle Obama
I've always been a closet jock, but when I got married and had kids, that fell by the wayside.
Michelle Obama
We're gathering a group of women around the administration to serve over a longer period of time as mentors to girls in need. If we can have that kind of impact in one night, just imagine if we were working with girls over the course of a year or two.... We can change lives.
Michelle Obama
I am desperate for change - now - not in 8 years or 12 years, but right now.
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
Barack, like any leader, is human. And, you know, our challenges in this country isn't finding the next person who's gonna deliver us from our own evil. Because our challenges are us. The challenges that this country faces is how are we as individuals in this society gonna change? What are we gonna do differently?
Michelle Obama

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
