Barack Obama híres idézetei

„A változás nem jön el, ha másokra vagy egy alkalmasabb időpontra várunk. Mi magunk vagyunk azok, akikre eddig vártunk. Mi magunk vagyunk a változás, amelyet keresünk.”

Barack Obama

„Ha a helyes úton jársz, és hajlandó vagy folytatni a gyaloglást, végül fejlődni fogsz.”

Barack Obama

„Ha életét kizárólag a pénzkeresésre összpontosítja, az az ambíciók szegénységéről tanúskodik. Túl keveset követel magától. És ez beteljesületlenül hagyja Önt.”

Barack Obama

„Lehet, hogy a történeteink egyediek, de a célunk közös.”

Barack Obama

„Minderre képesek vagyunk, és mindezt végre fogjuk hajtani.”

Barack Obama

2009, Transzban Amerika című beszédében

„Amerika soha nem a könnyű utat, az elégedettek útját járta, ez nem a gyávák (…) hanem a kockázatot vállalók útja volt.”

Barack Obama

2009, Transzban Amerika című beszédében

Barack Obama idézetek

„Nos, néhány gyakorlati tanácsot adnék: először is mindenkit arra kérek, figyeljen arra, miket publikál a Facebookon, mivel a YouTube-korszakban bármi, amit az embert tesz, később az életében még visszaüthet. És mivel még fiatalok vagytok, ti is gyakran követtek el hibákat, és csináltok ostobaságot.”

Barack Obama

Abban a beszédében, amikor arra hívja fel a figyelmet a fiatalokra, hogy komoly veszélyeket rejt, ha túl sok információt osztunk meg idegenekkel a Facebookon vagy hasonló közösségi szájtokon.

„A műveletben egy 60 millió dollárba kerülő helikoptert áldoztunk fel. Akkor már nem engedhettük volna meg magunknak, hogy egy mérőszalagot is beszerezzünk?”

Barack Obama

mondta Barack Obama, amikor végignézte az amerikai kommandósok által megölt Oszáma bin Láden azonosítását. (A terroristavezér holtteste mellé odafeküdt az akcióban résztvevő egyik katona, hogy összehasonlíthassák őket.)

„Mától össze kell szedjük, le kell poroljuk magunkat és hozzá el kell kezdenünk Amerika újraformálásához.”

Barack Obama

„Hosszú ideig tartott, de ma este, miután napközben, a választáson megtettük azt, amit kell, a változás eljött Amerikába.”

Barack Obama

Így kezdte november 4-én este választási győzelmi beszédét.

„Nem adjuk fel ezeket a haszonelvűség érdekében. Amerika a világon minden olyan nemzet és minden férfi, nő és gyerek barátja, amely, illetve aki a béke és méltóság elérésére törekszik". Mint mondta, Amerikát a hatalma egyedül nem képes megvédeni, és nem jogosítja fel arra, hogy kénye-kedve szerint cselekedjen, "biztonságunk ügyünk igazából, példánk erejéből fakad.”

„A gazdaság helyzete bátor és gyors cselekvést igényel, és mi cselekedni fogunk, nemcsak a munkahelyek teremtése érdekében, hanem hogy új alapot teremtsünk a növekedéshez – utakat és hidakat, elektromos hálózatokat és digitális vonalakat építünk, amelyek táplálják a kereskedelmet és összekötnek bennünket.”

Barack Obama

2009, Transzban Amerika című beszédében

„E napon befejezettnek nyilvánítjuk azokat a kicsinyes sérelmeket és hamis ígéreteket, a vádaskodásokat és elnyűtt dogmákat, amelyek túl hosszú ideje gúzsba kötötték a politikát.”

Barack Obama

„Olyan reformot hajtunk végre, amely csökkenti a költségeket, választási lehetőséget ad, és olyan (egészségügyi) lefedettséget biztosít, amire minden amerikaira számíthat. És ezt idén megcsináljuk…”

„Nem én vagyok az első elnök, aki az egészségügy átalakításával foglalkozik, de én akarok lenni az utolsó!”

Barack Obama

A kongresszus mindkét háza előtt megtartott beszédében, amelyben, olyan egészségügyet akar, melyben senkit sem utasíthatnak vissza a biztosítók. A terv szerinte 900 milliárd dollárba kerül, a háborúkra többet költ ennél az Egyesült Államok. Vastapsot és "Hazudik!" bekiabálást is kapott.

Barack Obama: Idézetek angolul

“But I do believe that there are basic values that we all share. And one of those values is that countries work best when everybody has a voice that can be respected, and that the press is able to report on what is happening in current affairs, and people can organize politically peacefully to try to bring about change, and that there's transparency and accountability. And when you look at which countries have done best in terms of development, typically over time, those countries that have some accountability and some measure of personal freedom tend to do better. And those countries that don't, have more problems.”

“So, now the Republicans are going around — this is the kind of thing they do. I don't understand it. They are going around. They're sending like little tire gauges, making fun of this idea, as if this is Barack Obama's energy plan. Now, two points. One, they know they're lying about what my energy plan is. But the other thing is, they are making fun of a step that every expert says would absolutely reduce our oil consumption by 3 percent to 4 percent. It's like these guys take pride in being ignorant, you know? I mean, they think it's funny that they're making fun of something that is actually true. They need to do their homework, because this is serious business. Instead of running ads about Paris Hilton and Britney Spears, they should go talk to some energy experts and actually make a difference.”

“Prosperity without freedom is just another form of poverty. Because there are aspirations that human beings share -- the liberty of knowing that your leader is accountable to you, and that you won’t be locked up for disagreeing with them; the opportunity to get an education and to be able to work with dignity; the freedom to practice your faith without fear or restriction. Those are universal values that must be observed everywhere.”

Remarks by the President at the University of Indonesia in Jakarta, Indonesia November 10, 2010 http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2010/11/10/remarks-president-university-indonesia-jakarta-indonesia
The line "Prosperity without freedom is just another form of poverty. Because there are aspirations that human beings share - the liberty of knowing that your leader is accountable to you - and that you won't get locked up for disagreeing with them" was according to the BBC's Guy Delauney in Jakarta a thinly-veiled swipe at China, in particular its treatment of political dissidents. See Obama hails Indonesia as example for world, BBC News Asia-Pacific, 10 November 2010 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-11723650.
The line "Prosperity without freedom is just another form of poverty" was later repeated by Obama in his remarks to the Australian Parliament on November 17, 2011 http://usrsaustralia.state.gov/us-oz/2011/11/17/wh1.html where Obama stated: "As we grow our economies, we’ll also remember the link between growth and good governance -- the rule of law, transparent institutions, the equal administration of justice. Because history shows that, over the long run, democracy and economic growth go hand in hand. And prosperity without freedom is just another form of poverty."

2013, Brandenburg Gate Speech (June 2013)

“I suspect that those of you who pursue more education, or climb the corporate ladder, or enter the arts or sciences or journalism, will still choose a cause you care about in your life and fight like heck to make it happen.
There is a word for this. It’s citizenship. We don’t always talk about this idea much these days, let alone celebrate it. Sometimes, we see it as a virtue from another time – one that’s slipping from a society that celebrates individual ambition; a society awash in instant technology that empowers us to leverage our skills and talents like never before, but just as easily allows us to retreat from the world. And the result is that we sometimes forget the larger bonds we share, as one American family.”

2013, Commencement Address at Ohio State University (May 2013)

“Of course, recognising our common humanity is only the beginning of our task. Words alone cannot meet the needs of our people. These needs will be met only if we act boldly in the years ahead; and if we understand that the challenges we face are shared, and our failure to meet them will hurt us all.”

Speech to reporters, 2006 Gridiron Dinner. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/politics/obama/chi-obama_senate_recordjun12-archive,0,3195588.story
2006

“People ask me… "What do you still bring from Hawaii? How does it affect your character, how does it affect your politics?" I try to explain to them something about the Aloha Spirit. I try to explain to them this basic idea that we all have obligations to each other, that we're not alone, that if we see somebody who's in need we should help… that we look out for one another, that we deal with each other with courtesy and respect, and most importantly, that when you come from Hawaii, you start understanding that what's on the surface, what people look like — that doesn't determine who they are.
And that the power and strength of diversity, the ability of people from everywhere … whether they're black or white, whether they're Japanese-Americans or Korean-Americans or Filipino-Americans or whatever they are, they are just Americans, that all of us can work together and all of us can join together to create a better country.
And it's that spirit, that I'm absolutely convinced, is what America is looking for right now.
Because we've been divided for so long, we've been arguing for so long, a lot of times about things that aren't even worth arguing about, and ignoring the things that we should be doing to make the next generation have a better life — that I think people are hungry for a new politics, they're hungry for change, and that's why I decided to run for President of the United States.”

“So we pulled up to this diner, where people told us that we could get some good pie. And I like pie. Do you like pie too? So, we go in there, and we say, "Oh, what kind of pie you got?' And they didn't have sweet potato pie, they didn't have pumpkin pie. They had some cream pies mostly, which is OK with me. So, I got some coconut cream pie. And Governor Strickland, he got lemon meringue pie.
So while we're waiting for our pie, the staff come and they want to take a picture with me because they say, you know, the owner of this dinner is a staunch die-hard Republican, so we want to kind of tease him a little bit by getting this picture with you. So we're taking this picture and suddenly the owner comes out with the pie. And he looks at me and I say, "Sir, I understand that you are a die-hard Republican." He says, "That's right." I said, "How's business?" He said, "Not so good." He said, "My customer, they can't afford to eat out anymore." I said, "Who's been in charge of the economy for the last eight years?" He said, "Republicans." I said, "You know, if you kept on hitting your head against a wall over and over again and it started to hurt, at some point would you stop hitting your head against the wall?"”

“Because I want this chamber, I want this city to reflect the truth -- that for all our blind spots and shortcomings, we are a people with the strength and generosity of spirit to bridge divides, to unite in common effort, to help our neighbors, whether down the street or on the other side of the world. I want our actions to tell every child in every neighborhood, your life matters, and we are committed to improving your life chances as committed as we are to working on behalf of our own kids. I want future generations to know that we are a people who see our differences as a great gift, that we’re a people who value the dignity and worth of every citizen -- man and woman, young and old, black and white, Latino, Asian, immigrant, Native American, gay, straight, Americans with mental illness or physical disability. Everybody matters. I want them to grow up in a country that shows the world what we still know to be true: that we are still more than a collection of red states and blue states; that we are the United States of America.”

2015, State of the Union Address (January 2015)

“And because they kept marching, America changed. Because they marched, a Civil Rights law was passed. Because they marched, a Voting Rights law was signed. Because they marched, doors of opportunity and education swung open so their daughters and sons could finally imagine a life for themselves beyond washing somebody else’s laundry or shining somebody else’s shoes. Because they marched, city councils changed and state legislatures changed, and Congress changed, and, yes, eventually, the White House changed. Because they marched, America became more free and more fair -- not just for African Americans, but for women and Latinos, Asians and Native Americans; for Catholics, Jews, and Muslims; for gays, for Americans with a disability. America changed for you and for me. and the entire world drew strength from that example, whether the young people who watched from the other side of an Iron Curtain and would eventually tear down that wall, or the young people inside South Africa who would eventually end the scourge of apartheid.”

2013, "Let Freedom Ring" Ceremony (August 2013)

“When politicians insult Muslims, when a mosque is vandalized, or a kid bullied, that doesn’t make us safer. That’s not telling it like it is. It’s just wrong. It diminishes us in the eyes of the world. It makes it harder to achieve our goals. And it betrays who we are as a country… What I’m asking for is hard. It’s easier to be cynical; to accept that change isn’t possible, and politics is hopeless, and to believe that our voices and actions don’t matter. But if we give up now, then we forsake a better future. Those with money and power will gain greater control over the decisions that could send a young soldier to war, or allow another economic disaster, or roll back the equal rights and voting rights that generations of Americans have fought, even died, to secure. As frustration grows, there will be voices urging us to fall back into tribes, to scapegoat fellow citizens who don’t look like us, or pray like us, or vote like we do, or share the same background. We can’t afford to go down that path. It won’t deliver the economy we want, or the security we want, but most of all, it contradicts everything that makes us the envy of the world.”

“We can continue down our current path, in which the gears of this great democracy grind to a halt and our children accept a life of lower expectations; where politics is a zero-sum game where a few do very well while struggling families of every race fight over a shrinking economic pie -- that’s one path.

“Our best corporate citizens are also our most creative… Sixty years ago, when the Russians beat us into space, we didn’t deny Sputnik was up there. We didn't argue about the science, or shrink our research and development budget. We built a space program almost overnight, and twelve years later, we were walking on the moon. That spirit of discovery is in our DNA. We're Thomas Edison and the Wright Brothers and George Washington Carver. We're Grace Hopper and Katherine Johnson and Sally Ride. We're every immigrant and entrepreneur from Boston to Austin to Silicon Valley racing to shape a better world. And over the past seven years, we've nurtured that spirit.”

Not because you have a debt to all those who helped you get here, although I do believe you have that debt. It's because you have an obligation to yourself. Because our individual salvation depends on collective salvation. Because thinking only about yourself, fulfilling your immediate wants and needs, betrays a poverty of ambition.”

2012, Sandy Hook Prayer Vigil (December 2012)

“So we can all appreciate our own identities, our bloodlines, our beliefs, our backgrounds -- that tapestry is what makes us who we are. But the history of Africa -- which is both the cradle of human progress and a crucible of conflict -- shows us that when define ourselves narrowly, in opposition to somebody just because they’re of a different tribe, or race, or religion -- and we ignore who is a good person or a bad person, are they working hard or not, are they honest or not, are they peaceful or violent -- when we start making distinctions solely based on status and not what people do, then we're taking the wrong path and we inevitably suffer in the end. This is why Martin Luther King called on people to be judged not by the color of their skin but the content of their character. And in the same way, people should not be judged by their last name, or their religious faith, but by their content of their character and how they behave. Are they good citizens? Are they good people?”

“The world that America seeks is not one we can build on our own. For human rights to reach those who suffer the boot of oppression, we need your voices to speak out. In particular, I appeal to those nations who emerged from tyranny and inspired the world in the second half of the last century, from South Africa to South Asia, from Eastern Europe to South America. Don't stand idly by, don't be silent when dissidents elsewhere are imprisoned and protesters are beaten. Recall your own history, because part of the price of our own freedom is standing up for the freedom of others.”
