But while they're adding teachers in places like South Korea, we're laying them off in droves. It's unfair to our kids. It undermines their future and ours. And it has to stop. Pass this bill, and put our teachers back in the classroom where they belong.

I know CNN has taken some knocks lately but the fact is, I admire their commitment to covering all sides of the story, just in case one of them happens to be accurate.

Barack Obama 2263 quotes

The programs that have been d...

The programs that have been discussed over the last couple days in the press are secret in the sense that they are classified but they are not secret in the sense that when it comes to phone calls every member of Congress has been briefed on this program. With respect to all these programs the relevant intelligence committees are fully briefed on these programs. These are programs that have been authorized by broad bipartisan majorities repeatedly since 2006.

So I think it's important to understand that your duly elected representatives have been consistently informed about exactly what we're doing.

Barack Obama 2263 quotes

With respect to the Internet and emails, this does not apply to U.S. citizens and it does not apply to people living in the United States.

Barack Obama 2263 quotes

Abraham Lincoln and Millard F...

Abraham Lincoln and Millard Fillmore had the same title. They were both presidents of the United States, but their tenure in office and their legacy could not be more different.

We will kill bin Laden. We will crush al Qaeda. That has to be our biggest national security priority.

Barack Obama 2263 quotes

If any individual who objects...

If any individual who objects to government policy can take it in their own hands to publicly disclose classified information, then we will never be able to keep our people safe or conduct foreign policy.

Peace depends upon compromise among peoples who must live together long after our speeches are over, long after our votes have been tallied.

In sectors like energy, I haven't been arguing for more spending per se; I've been arguing that it doesn't make sense for us to spend $4 billion subsidizing an oil industry that's mature and very profitable. We should be using that money to finance clean energy of the future.

We cannot meet 21st Century challenges with a 20th Century bureaucracy.

Barack Obama 2263 quotes

That is the American story. People, just like you, following their passions, determined to meet the times on their own terms. They weren't doing it for the money. Their titles weren't fancy. But they changed the course of history and so can you.

These days, the House Republicans actually give John Boehner a harder time than they give me. Which means orange really is the new black.

Barack Obama 2263 quotes

Our intelligence agencies will continue to gather information about the intentions of governments - as opposed to ordinary citizens - around the world, in the same way that the intelligence services of every other nation does. We will not apologize simply because our services may be more effective.

Barack Obama 2263 quotes

Look, Americans will go for leadership that makes sense. Our job, you know, as public officials, is not to put our finger in the air. Our job is to listen, and then lead.

Barack Obama 2263 quotes

This self-reflection, this wi...

This self-reflection, this willingness to examine ourselves, to make corrections, to do better, that's part of what makes us Americans. It's part of what sets us apart from other nations, the United States is the most professional, most capable, most cutting-edge intelligence community in the world.

Barack Obama 2263 quotes

It's a moral imperative, it's...

It's a moral imperative, it's an economic imperative, and it is a security imperative. For we've seen how spikes in food prices can plunge millions into poverty, which, in turn, can spark riots that cost lives, and can lead to instability. And this danger will only grow if a surging global population isn't matched by surging food production. So reducing malnutrition and hunger around the world advances international peace and security - and that includes the national security of the United States.

Barack Obama 2263 quotes

We've seen how militarized gear can sometimes give people a feeling like there's an occupying force, as opposed to a force that's part of the community that's protecting them and serving them.

A person’s zip code shouldn’t decide their destiny.

Americans should tremble before suggesting that any fellow citizen lacks patriotism.
