Results from Laura Moncur's Motivational Quotations:

I've come to embrace the notion that I haven't done enough in my life. I've come to confirm that one's title, even a title like president of the United States, says very little about how well one's life has been led. No matter how much you've done or how successful you've been, there's always more to do, always more to learn, and always more to achieve.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009

You can't rest on your laurels. Your own body of work is yet to come.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009

The elevation of appearance over substance, of celebrity over character, of short term gains over lasting achievement displays a poverty of ambition. It distracts you from what's truly important.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009
The leaders we revere and the businesses that last are generally not the result of a narrow pursuit of popularity or personal advancement, but of devotion to some bigger purpose. That's the hallmark of real success. The other trapping of success might be the by product of this larger mission, but it can't be the central thing.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009
- More quotations on: [Success]
We too often let the material things serve as indicators that we're doing well, even though something inside us tells us that were not doing our best. That we are avoiding that which is hard, but also necessary. That we are shrinking from rather than vising to the challenges of the age.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009
- More quotations on: [Possessions]
In this new, hyper competitive age, none of us, none of us can afford to be complacent.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009
Abraham Lincoln and Millard Fillmore had the same title. They were both presidents of the United States, but their tenure in office and their legacy could not be more different.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009
- More quotations on: [Legacy]
In recent years, we've become enamored with our own past success. Lulled into complacency by the glitter of our own achievements. We've become accustomed to the title of Military Superpower, forgetting the qualities that got us there. We've become accustomed to our economic dominance in the world, forgetting that it wasn't reckless deals and get rich quick schemes that got us where we are, but hard work and smart ideas, quality products and wise investments.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009
- More quotations on: [America]
That is the American story. People, just like you, following their passions, determined to meet the times on their own terms. They weren't doing it for the money. Their titles weren't fancy. But they changed the course of history and so can you.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009
- More quotations on: [America]
Find somebody to be successful for. Raise their hopes. Think of their needs.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009
