Thanks for that. Google wont let me view the book (not being in the US).
The Groucho reference was related to the small quote I posted ("I intend to live forever or die trying"), but yes the reference was from online which is why I have my doubts about the origin. These days the line gets used a lot, there's even a music album with the title "live forever or die trying".
