More quotes by Michelle Obama
It wasn't so long ago that I was a working mom myself. And I know that sometimes, much as we all hate to admit it, it's just easier to park the kids in front of the TV for a few hours, so we can pay the bills or do the laundry or just have some peace and quiet for a change.

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
One of the lessons that I grew up with was to always stay true to yourself and never let what somebody else says distract you from your goals. And so when I hear about negative and false attacks, I really don't invest any energy in them, because I know who I am.
Michelle Obama
My children are very blessed.... That's why I think that mentoring is such a critical part of the role I can play in this position. I see how little bits of exposure and big bits of exposure really change my girls significantly, and I want that for more girls around the country and the world.
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
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
Barack is one of the smartest people you will ever encounter who will deign to enter this messy thing called politics.
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
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
Barack Obama was a black man that lived on the South Side of Chicago, who had his share of troubles catching cabs.
Michelle Obama
I tell my kids, 'I am thinking about you every other minute of my day.'
