Description
Julius Henry "Groucho" Marx (October 2, 1890[1] β August 19, 1977) was an American comedian and film star famed as a master of wit. His rapid-fire delivery of innuendo-laden patter earned him many admirers. He made 13 feature films with his siblings the Marx Brothers, of whom he was the third-born. He also had a successful solo career, most notably as the host of the radio and television game show You Bet Your Life.[2] His distinctive appearance, carried over from his days in vaudeville, included quirks such as an exaggerated stooped posture, glasses, cigars, and a thick greasepaint mustache and eyebrows.

Funny story true story about Groucho:
On his show, "You Bet Your Life", a contestant told him that he had 10 kids.
Groucho: (does a double take) Why do you have 10 kids?
Contestant: (gets a bit indignant) Well, I happen to love my wife.
Groucho: Well, I happen to love my cigar, but at least I take it out of my mouth once of a while.

Yes, I remember that episode.Β Groucho was a quick wit.Β Some of those things he said off the cuff were better than what most writers could come up with with time advantage.
