U.S. Senator, IL - President of the United States (2009-2016)

"It has not always been the pragmatist, the voice of reason, or the force of compromise, that has created the conditions for liberty," he writes about the antislavery movement of the 19th century.

I am robbed even of the certainty of uncertainty--for sometimes absolute truths may well be absolute."
