- Groucho Marx - Host: Have you always been athletic, Bob?
- Bob Mathias: No, I haven't. When I was 13, I was anemic, and I was tired, and weak, and a 98-pound weakling.
- Groucho Marx - Host: You were tired and run down at the age of 13?
- Bob Mathias: Yes, sir.
- Groucho Marx - Host: It took me 40 years to get in that condition.
