Man does not control his own fate. The women in his life do that for him.
GROUCHO MARX, as quoted in Woman's Day Magazine, May 8, 2007
You probably are not aware of it but you and I have a completely different conception of me. You regard me as a kind of ancient crone--a talkative old chatterbox who upon the receipt of any kind of news--no matter how trivial--breathlessly rushes out to broadcast it to the world at large. I, on the other hand, regard myself as a mute stoic, silent as the Sphinx--a graven image, who, even if burning fagots were applied to his bare feet, would never reveal the slightest information to anyone. Perhaps I fit somewhere between these two poles.
GROUCHO MARX, letter to "Sheek" (Arthur Sheekman), Feb. 15, 1955
Marriage is the chief cause of divorce.
