Dan Rather
We may see Michael Jackson's baby before we know the final outcome of this race for the House of Representatives tonight.
Dan Rather
Journalism is less addictive than communism.
Dan Rather
I don't pretend to be a digital savant or even a digital apprentice.
Dan Rather
Always marry a woman from Texas. No matter how tough things get, she's seen tougher.
Dan Rather
If I didn't have a front-row seat on history, it was at least a seat on the aisle.
