"I know, but I had a better year than Hoover"

- George Herman

About this Quote

This quote is from George Herman, much better known as Babe Ruth, one of the best baseball players of perpetuity. He was describing his own efficiency in the 1931 season, when he struck a record-breaking 46 crowning achievement. This was a remarkable task, specifically thinking about that the previous record was held by President Herbert Hoover, who had actually only struck 35 home runs in the 1930 season. By going beyond Hoover's record, Ruth was suggesting that he had a better year than the President. This quote is a testament to Ruth's confidence and competitive spirit, as he was not scared to compare himself to the leader of the United States. Ruth's record-breaking efficiency in 1931 was a significant milestone in his profession, and this quote serves as a pointer of his achievement.
