We're not perfect, but we do have democracy.

I know my country has not perfected itself. At times, we've struggled to keep the promise of liberty and equality for all of our people. We've made our share of mistakes, and there are times when our actions around the world have not lived up to our best intentions.

We should not be surprised that democracy is imperfect even in Western countries.

In reality most people aren't as perfect as they want to seem.

Perfection itself is imperfection.

We live in an imperfect world, and imperfect people surround us every day.

Nobody's perfect. Even the most successful people make serious mistakes.

We're all made to make mistakes; nobody's perfect.
