....a book is a man's best friend. Inside a dog, it's too dark to read Sparkey mate, pal...I have scrutinised the poets works and the learned writers of decades past, and to tell the truth I can find no trace of these words. I was wondering if perhaps you wrote them yourself, and if so the state of mind at the time. These words, upon my soul I feel something deep when I read them!
Alas Dom, I cannot lay claim to those immortal words. They were uttered by the late great Groucho Marx. The man was genius at the one-liners. He also said: - "I never forget a face, but in your case I'll make an exception"....
Compares favourably with one of my favourites and with a similar theme. When Lady Astor said to Churchill (the PM not the dog) 'Sir, you are drunk'. He repled, 'I am, Madam, but in the morning I will be sober, whereas you will still be ugly'.
I don't recall Groucho saying that Red. He did say however: - "I'll always remember the first time I had sex - I kept the receipt."
