- Groucho Marx (1890-1977), was an iconic American comedian, actor, and writer. As the third of the Marx Brothers, he gained fame for his sharp wit, distinctive mustache, and irreverent humor. The Marx Brothers achieved success in vaudeville, Broadway, and Hollywood, with Groucho as the quick-witted, wisecracking character often delivering memorable one-liners. Groucho's humor was characterized by clever wordplay, satirical commentary, and a unique blend of sarcasm and charm.
Groucho Marx's enduring legacy lies not only in his comedic brilliance but also in the timeless wisdom encapsulated in his memorable quotes that continue to bring laughter and insight to audiences around the world.

My favourite GM quote "I would never join any club that would accept me as a member"
Love it too
Might have been groucho, but I recall one quote that said, as I recall, I sent a letter and a photo to the lonely hearts club."..."They sent it back and said they weren't that lonely..." Might have been Rodney Dangerfield though.
This is a good one
I seem to recall one more quote from Groucho from his TV show way back when. He asked a woman guest her age. She said "approaching 40." Groucho said "from which direction"....
@@festeradams3972 So funny 🤣
Couldn't choose a worse robot voice to take all the humour of Groucho Marx quotes.
Thanks for your comment. Well noted. We will try to improve for future videos.
That's exactly what I thought.
Turn the sound off and read.
@@bungee7503 That's exactly what I did. Couldn't bear that ridiculous voice.
Exactly what I thought as I stopped the video after 3 quotes. It literally is "the way you tell em'"
Without giving the source of the quotes (movie, books), attributing them to Groucho is at the very least doubtful. There are a few I recognize from Marx Brothers movies, but about half of them don't sound like him at all. As Abraham Lincoln said, "Don't trust random unsourced quotes on the Internet or the people who post them."
😂
Nope, not "Honest Abe", that was Genghis Khan, 9th October 1223 at The Bucket of Blood Pub in Cornwall, England after a Scotch egg and a wank.
Groucho was a brilliant comic, who left behind so many wonderful quotes. "What have future generations ever done for us?"
But the narrator actually managed to make Groucho sound boring. Too bad you couldn't have found original audio of Groucho saying these things, or at least gotten a Groucho impersonator.
Thanks for your comment. We will improve for future videos.
I agree about the lackluster narration. I think it sounds better with the audio off. (Right, Groucho?)
Thanks for your comment. Well noted. We keep learning and will improve for future videos.
Set playback speed to 1.25 normal speed.
One of my favorite Groucho quotes: "I was married by a judge. I should have asked for a jury."
This is a good one 😂
Ha! I was married by a judge, 30 years ago, in his chambers. My wife was his court reporter. Happily, I feel no regrets not having a jury. But great line...Had not heard that one before.
Thanks for sharing your experience 👍
"Marriage is a wonderful institution...but who wants to live in an institution?"
He had another wonderful quip on TV : People say television is anti-education. I disagree. When someone switches it on, I go in the next room and read a book.
This is a good one 👍
On reading he said "Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read"
This is a good one
I have always liked Groucho’s lines. When I read that many of his movie lines were “insults,” I appreciated them even more!
😂
Groucho Marx offered to marry Margaret Dumont, and another woman, as well. Indignant, Margaret said "That's bigamy!" Groucho replied "That's big o' me, too!"
Good one
While walking the gangplank to an ocean liner, she asked him if he had everything. Groucho replied, "I haven't had any complaints yet."
The best and funniest programme on CZcams is YOU BET YOUR LIFE with Groucho.
Agreed 👍
Woman in movie,”Hold me closer! Hold me closer!” Groucho,”Madam, if I held you any closer, I’d be behind you.”
Good one
I remember that one, I even have the movie. Marx Brothers were unique in the Cinema History.
0:55 A similar quote is appearing in the Gallettiana, a collection of memorable slips of the tongue by Johann Georg August Galletti, from 1789 to 1819 teacher at the Gymnasium illustre in Gotha, Germany. His 34th slip is quoted as "Charilaus wurde sehr jung geboren" (Charilaus was born very young).
Loved those quotes. 😂
Agreed
Why not pay a few bucks for an even half decent comedian to have read these with a bit of intonation and expression.

I'd do it for nothing!
@@normanstewart7130 Don't sell yourself cheaply.... but I do really see the point you're making.
I started reading it with the sound off and could hear Groucho saying it in my head, then turned up the volume and it fell flat.
Mi\y favourite quote of his is:
"Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend..... Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read".
This is a good one
@@Open-Quote Groucho lived in New York City, and frequently took lunch at a sidewalk deli.
One day while lunching with friends, a minister stopped by his table and said " I'd like to thank you for all the joy you've brought into this world"
Without pausing Groucho responded "And I'd like to thank you for all the joy you've taken out of it."
His wit was fast, and razor sharp.
" I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member" is my favorite .....
But Open Quote should have SPENT a couple dollars and found actual quotes and USED GROUCHO's VOICE !
Those quotes are brilliant 😂
We agree 👍
I miss him. One of the greatest minds of the 20th century.
He was indeed
Love the Plastic Surgeon one the best, but they're all solid gold.
Agreed
It's such a shame the voice used on this takes out the joy of these great quotes.
Thanks for your comment. Well noted. We keep learning and will improve for future videos.
I always thought the quote about your brains falling out was from Bertrand Russell.
We will check
Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside a dog, it's too dark to read.
This is good one
I especially love the natural sounding AI voice
Thanks for your comment. Well noted. We keep learning and will improve for future videos.
@@Open-QuoteThis is not a case of learning but rather an initial “couldn’t care” approach, insulting the author in the process. Not paying a human narrator is a cheap attitude that won’t be solved by a spineless “will improve” reply.
Great quotes, horrendous presentation
Thanks for your comment. Well noted. We keep learning and will improve for future videos.
My favorite: When i was in Africa, i shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas I'll never know.
Love this one :)
Why not have these read by an actor? Or even me- I know where the stresses go in English.
No one can read out loud anymore? This voice sounds like he is a mortician.

It's so lovely. Just looking at it is healing. nice to meet you. It is an honor to have such a good relationship. I want to hold your precious hand ?? and go to the end. Please enjoy watching your precious video and cheering for it. New Friend Here, Hope Your Cooperation.
I thought that quote at 2:31 was by W. C. Fields.
Thanks for your comment. It looks like this quote is sometimes associated to W.C. Fields and sometimes to Groucho Marx. The challenge of quotes is to identify the first author.
Who can top him not many if any.
We agree
Watch this with the volume OFF
Haha, he saw wokeness coming:
"Be open minded, but not so open minded that your brains fall out."
This is a good one
Proof that AI can make ANYTHING sound stupid.
Very poor comic delivery.
🌟
Thanks for your comment. We will improve for future videos.
Just find someone who can read!
A real person!
You can't have AI deliver comedy quotations.
It's just a ridiculous idea, and an insult to every comedian and storyteller since Mark Twain.
Don't lean on this AI crutch.
It can't be this fuckin hard to find a human being who can read short sentences.
This can't be.
@@mistymeaner1753 And, for someone like Groucho Marx, there must be hundreds of people who can mimmic his voice. The robotic voice for this and hundreds of other videos is a ridiculous turn-off.
@@danstrayer111 I HATE that shit!
Bogus as fuck!
Ridiculous, not allowing Groucho his voice
It's wonderful that these quotes are so witty and insightful, that they are still slightly funny when voiced by an AI actor that sounds like putty!
Groucho’s wrong. I had no plan to watch this video.
We are glad you did it
You also cannot start a plan without a plan. Once you plan to do something then you have a plan to start planning to do something so you had a plan to plan. If you have no plan to start planning then you do not have, and will not have, a plan and will not begin planning so not having a plan to plan means you don't plan in the future. I'll go away now.
Wise word read by AI.
If you are not lucky enough to have heard and seen Groucho on TV, please watch some videos of him, especially of his game show, "You Bet Your Life". Having seen Groucho on TV, I can see and hear him in my mind as I read the quotes in the video. It's best to mute this video and just read the quotes, cause the narrator terrible.
Thanks for your comments. We are still learning and wish to improve for future videos
Speed up this video if you want to watch it -- It sounds like a snail is reading it.
The voice sounds like a depressed robot: monotonous in tone, volume, speed, emphasis….
too bod someone couldn't narrate this. Just plain lazy.
Thanks for your comment. Well noted. We will improve for future videos
horrible AI voice

Goodness, I doubt you will ever learn enough to do justice to this!
"Have a nice day"
We will try to improve. Groucho was such a brilliant guy, we may not be able to do him justice
The commentary is despicable.
He's good. Really good.
But not as good as Yogi Berra.
Agreed he is good
The robot voice absolutely sucks 😡
Great quotes ruined.
OMG what a horrible voice for Groucho quotes! Thumbs down.
