I can do what I want now. I'll stay and loaf here until April and then head North again. But I'll take the trip in one jump—not twenty.”

Babe Ruth (1895–1948) American baseball player

As quoted in "Babe Ruth, Idle First time In 23 Years, Blames His Legs" by Grantland Rice, in The Baltimore Sun (February 19, 1936), p. 14
