We learned about gratitude and humility – that so many people had a hand in our success, from the teachers who inspired us to the janitors who kept our school clean… and we were taught to value everyones contribution and treat everyone with respect. – Michelle Obama
The truth is, in order to get things like universal health care and a revamped education system, then someone is going to have to give up a piece of their pie so that someone else can have more. – Michelle Obama
When it comes to the health of our families, Barack refused to listen to all those folks who told him to leave health reform for another day, another president. He didnt care whether it was the easy thing to do politically – thats not how he was raised – he cared that it was the right thing to do. – Michelle Obama
Like so many American families, our families werent asking for much. They didnt begrudge anyone elses success or care that others had much more than they did… in fact, they admired it. – Michelle Obama
