Barack Obama — "My job is not to be a cheerleader for the United States of America."

"We are the change we have been waiting for."

"You know, when I got to the White House, I was 47 years old. I left, I was 55. And I'm telling you, I looked older. I'm telling you. And I'm not talking about the gray hair. I'm talking about the bags…"

"I am not a fan of reality television. I'm just not. I think it's a little bit trashy. But I do watch it sometimes, because Michelle watches it."

"I have to confess, I'm a little bit of a neat freak. I like things in their place. And if Michelle leaves her shoes in the middle of the room, it drives me nuts."

"I have a funny name."
