More quotes by Michelle Obama
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
Oh, I can't play soccer, and I'm not a great swimmer. I won't drown, but you won't see me doing laps in a pool.
Michelle Obama
Don't let anyone speak for you, and don't rely on others to fight for you.
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 support Mary Burke for Governor!
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
Ultimately this issue is on us. We're the ones who make the decisions about what our kids eat.
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
When I was younger, I could eat whatever I wanted, as long as I exercised or if I didn't exercise and just watched what I ate, I'd maintain. Now I have to do both.
Michelle Obama
Find people who will make you better.
Michelle Obama
Barack Obama was a black man that lived on the South Side of Chicago, who had his share of troubles catching cabs.
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.
Michelle Obama
I tell this to my girls all the time: This journey we're on is a once - in - a - lifetime opportunity.
Michelle Obama
When I get up and work out, I'm working out just as much for my girls as I am for me, because I want them to see a mother who loves them dearly, who invests in them, but who also invests in herself. It's just as much about letting them know as young women that it is okay to put yourself a little higher on your priority list.
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
You work hard for what you want in life.
Michelle Obama
Earlier in my college career, there was no doubt in my mind that as a member of the Black community I was somehow obligated to this community and would utilize all of my present and future resources to benefit this community first and foremost.
Michelle Obama
The benefits of studying abroad are almost endless.
Michelle Obama
I always want to be on the cusp of being in the best shape that I can be.
Michelle Obama
Good health is multifaceted - it's physical, it's internal, it's my diet, and my emotional state. It's all tied in together.
Michelle Obama
