Harpo or Groucho?


Indeed, Harpo.

Perhaps the humor was a little too dry. Would it make more sense as "Well, as Marcel Marceau always said ..."?

(Both had famous on-screen personae notable for their non-speaking roles.)

Harpo had a reputation as a raconteur off screen and there are some quite pithy comments attributed to him. The one I remembered best was about Harpo's "membership" in the Algonquin Round Table ... that "The price of admission is a serpent's tongue and a half-concealed stiletto."

Although upon researching the quote I find it attributed to Groucho Marx, describing Harpo's association with "The Vicious Circle".

But Harpo was who I meant.

As Harpo Marx always said ... (silence).
