Michelle Obama Quotes

There is nothing more important to this nation’s future than investing in our young people Picture Quote #1

We can aim to create a culture, where kids ask for healthy options instead of resisting them Picture Quote #1

Whether an illness affects your heart, your leg or your brain, it’s still an illness, and there should be no distinction Picture Quote #1

No, I think that if he had known he would be president, he would have started dying his hair, like, 10 years ago. Now it’s too late Picture Quote #1

We’ve got a responsibility to live up to the legacy of those who came before us by doing all that we can to help those who come after us Picture Quote #1

Fashion is about so much more than just a pretty pair of pumps or the perfect hemline. For so many people across the country, it is a calling, it is a career, and it’s a way they feed their families Picture Quote #1

Women should have the freedom to do whatever they need to do to feel good about themselves Picture Quote #1

Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we’re going to have to change our traditions, our history; we’re going to have to move into a different place as a nation Picture Quote #1

I am so tired of fear. And I don’t want my girls to live in a country, in a world, based on fear Picture Quote #1

Fortunately, we have help from the media. I have to say this: I’m very grateful for the support and kindness that we’ve gotten. People have respected their privacy and in that way, I think, you know, no matter what people may feel about my husband’s policies or what have you, they care about children and that’s been good to see Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Clearly this is a tough economic time, and a lot of families are hurting. So when we talk to parents, we talk about small changes for kids and things that don’t cost extra money. Like adding water and eliminating sugary drinks and sodas. That’s going to save money right there. Or adding a few more vegetables Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

The arts are not just a nice thing to have or to do if there is free time or if one can afford it. Rather, paintings and poetry, music and fashion, design and dialogue, they all define who we are as a people and provide an account of our history for the next generation Picture Quote #1

Do not bring people in your life who weigh you down. And trust your instincts... good relationships feel good. They feel right. They don’t hurt. They’re not painful. That’s not just with somebody you want to marry, but it’s with the friends that you choose. It’s with the people you surround yourselves with Picture Quote #1

When you’re really trying to make serious change, you don’t want people to get caught up in emotion because change isn’t emotion. Because change isn’t emotion. Its real work and organization and strategy.. that’s just the truth of it. I mean, you pull people in with inspiration, but then you have to roll up your sleeves and you’ve got to make sacrifices and you have got to have structure Picture Quote #1

Barack and I have been in the public eye for many years now, and we’ve developed a thick skin along the way. When you’re out campaigning, there will always be criticism. I just take it in stride, and at the end of the day, I know that it comes with the territory Picture Quote #1

I am not asking anyone to take the fun out of childhood. As we all know, treats are one of the best parts of being a kid. Instead, the goal here is to empower parents instead of undermining them as they try to make healthier choices for their families Picture Quote #1

Our kids didn’t do this to themselves. They don’t decide the sugar content in soda or the advertising content of a television show. Kids don’t choose what’s served to them for lunch at school, and shouldn’t be deciding what’s served to them for dinner at home. And they don’t decide whether there’s time in the day or room in the budget to learn about healthy eating or to spend time playing outside Picture Quote #1

The physical and emotional health of an entire generation and the economic health and security of our nation is at stake. This isn’t the kind of problem that can be solved overnight, but with everyone working together, it can be solved. So, let’s move Picture Quote #1

What I love about design is the artistic and scientific complexity that also becomes useful... Great designers also pursue a mission. Great designers design with mankind in mind... The crossroads of science and art, innovation and inspiration are what I love about design Picture Quote #1

You have to practice success. Success doesn’t just show up. If you aren’t practicing success today, you won’t wake up in 20 years and be successful, because you won’t have developed the habits of success, which are small things like finishing what you start, putting a lot of effort into everything you do, being on time, treating people well Picture Quote #1

You all have opportunities and skills and education that so many folks who came before you never could have dreamed of. So just imagine the kind of impact that you’re going to make. Imagine how you can inspire those around you to reach higher and complete their own education Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

We all grew up in communities with grandmothers who cooked two, three vegetables that you had to eat. There was no ifs, ands or buts about it. But that’s because many of our grandparents, they had community gardens; there was the vegetable man that came around. There were many other resources that allowed them to have access. So it’s not that people don’t know or don’t want to do the right thing; they just have to have access to the foods that they know will make their families healthier Picture Quote #1

Parents have a right to expect that their efforts at home won’t be undone each day in the school cafeteria or in the vending machine in the hallway... Parents have a right to expect that their kids will be served fresh, healthy food that meets high nutritional standards Picture Quote #1

We are living in a time where we just don’t have enough time. People are rushed. They’re over worked, over scheduled. Not enough resources... But the thing that I want people to understand in this campaign is that families can make small manageable changes in their lives that can have pretty significant impacts Picture Quote #1

We don’t need new discoveries or new inventions to reverse this trend. We have the tools at our disposal to reverse it. All we need is the motivation, the opportunity and the willpower to do what needs to be done... With this report, we have a very solid road map that we need to make these goals real, to solve this problem within a generation Picture Quote #1

Kids who participate in school meal programs get roughly half of their calories each day at school... This is an extraordinary responsibility. But it’s also an opportunity. And it’s why one of the single most important things we can do to fight childhood obesity is to make those meals at school as healthy and nutritious as possible Picture Quote #1
