More From Barack Obama

Everything comes by being! be the love you seek. be the friend you seek. be the lover you seek. be the honesty you seek. be the integrity you seek. be the patience you seek. be the tolerance you seek. be the compassion you seek.
Honesty Integrity Love You
I have spent probably years of time waiting in studio lounges - waiting on a mix, waiting on my time to sing, waiting on, waiting on, waiting on. that's just the nature of life.
Years Waiting My Time
I just want to hear the true voices of women self-expressing - smart ones, stupid ones, ugly ones, beautiful ones, good ones, bad ones, fat ones, thin ones, all of it - until the profound silence that has resounded throughout history is filled with a healthy chorus coming from our side of the aisle.
Beautiful Smart Stupid
I’ll wait for you. come back. the words were not meaningless, but they didn’t touch him now. it was clear enough - one person waiting for another was like an arithmetical sum, and just as empty of emotion. waiting. simply one person doing nothing, over time, while another approached. waiting was a heavy word.
Waiting Doing Nothing Emotion
Wait, wait, wait, wait. don't try to write through it, to force it. many do, but that won't work. just wait, it will come.
Writing Waiting Trying
Women have always been seen as waiting: waited to be asked, waiting for our menses, in fear lest they do or do not come, waiting for men to come home from wars, or from work, waiting for children to grow up, or for the birth of a new child, or for menopause.

Similar Quotes
Let children walk with nature, let them see the beautiful blendings and communions of death and life, their joyous inseparable unity.
Beautiful Death Children
The character of a child is formed largely during the first twelve years of his life. he spends 16 times as many waking hours in the home as in the school, and 126 times as many hours in the home as in the church. each child is, to a great degree, what he is because of the ever-constant influence of home environment and the careful or neglectful training of parents. home is the best place for the child to learn self-control, to learn that he must submerge himself for the good of another. it is the best place in which to develop obedience, which nature and society will later demand.
Children Teaching Home
I was an only child, and mother was always right with me all my life. i used to get very angry at her when i was growing up-it's a natural thing.
Mother Children Growing Up
...to return to their 'native soil,' as they say, to the bosom, so to speak, of their mother earth, like frightened children, yearning to fall asleep on the withered bosom of their decrepit mother, and to sleep there for ever, only to escape the horrors that terrify them.
Mother Fear Children
