“Darius said, ``Had I as many men like Megabazus as there are seeds in this pomegranate, it would please me better than to be lord of Greece.'' ... Senator Reid is an excellent assistant majority leader. He is always on the floor. ... This man is a man who, if I may do a little bragging, was cut in my own image in that he stays on the floor. He works this floor. He is always to be counted upon. ... Majority Leader Daschle can be very grateful for the fact that he has been given this very excellent man, Harry Reid of Nevada, to work and to assist him, Mr. Daschle, as the whip. I pay my compliments to Mr. Reid. I thank him for his great work.”
