"Michelle helps on that 'cause she's just a sensible person."

"The challenges we face as a nation are now more numerous and difficult than when I first arrived in Chicago, but I have no doubt that we can meet them."

"Surprisingly enough, I feel right now that I'm doing what I should be doing."

"I came to Illinois all those years ago, and they will stay with me when I go to the White House in January."
