We cannot win the future with a government built for the past.

Progress in achieving better results at lower cost is already being made.

Let us now carry that work forward in our time.

While today's vote demonstrates important progress, we must remember that much work remains to be done.

Today's action was a major step forward in achieving that goal.

The good news is you're already ahead of the curve.

The truest measure of progress would be whether or not we were creating jobs.

I want us to do better than we were doing.

I didn't run for President just to get back to where we were, I ran for President so that we could move forward.

We will fall behind.

Even when we have differences, we cannot allow those differences to prevent us from making progress.

I can report that over the past year, this work has begun.

I think it's fair to say that the American people are frustrated with the lack of progress on some key issues.

Progress comes when we look into the eyes of another and see the face of God.

We have been given the opportunity to change our country for the better.

We can't afford to spin our wheels while the rest of the world speeds ahead.

But our work is far from complete.

We are heirs to their extraordinary progress.
