"Outside of a dog a book is man's best friend...

Inside of a dog it's too dark to read."  -Groucho Marx

More of Groucho

"If a black cat crosses your path, it signifies that the animal is going somewhere."

"One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas I'll never know."

"Just give me a comfortable couch, a dog, a good book, and a woman. Then if you can get the dog to go somewhere and read the book, I might have a little fun."

"When you're in jail, a good friend will be trying to bail you out. A best friend will be in the cell next to you saying, 'Damn, that was fun'."

Here is a video of Groucho singing his classic "Show Me a Rose" on the Dick Cavett Show in 1972 when he was 81-years-old.
As Cavett says, Nobody ever gets tired of hearing
"Show Me a Rose."

If you haven't heard it, well, you shouldn't go through life
without hearing Groucho sing "Show Me a Rose."

  When someone asks "How are you?" try saying, "So am I."
