Success is only meaningful and enjoyable if it feels like your own. – Michelle Obama
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
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
And Barack and I were raised with so many of the same values, like you work hard for what you want in life. That your word is your bond that you do what you say youre going to do. That you treat people with dignity and respect, even if you dont know them and even if you dont agree with them. – Michelle Obama
