Quote of the Day (Groucho Marx, With a Blurb to End All Blurbs)


“From the moment I picked up your book until I laid it down, I was convulsed with laughter. Some day I intend reading it.”—Comedian Groucho Marx (here with Thelma Todd), in a dust-jacket blurb for his future screenwriter S.J. Perelman’s book, Dawn Ginsbergh's Revenge (1929), quoted in Perelman’s The Last Laugh (1981)
