I always preferred Try Ruby as the quickest way to jump in:

http://tryruby.hobi.com/

Of course, it's a little bit outdated, especially the download links it 
has at the end. But it's still absolutely genius.

After that, I couldn't say. Someone else will probably suggest a book, 
and that's good, too. I would say, Google is your friend -- it doesn't 
take any longer to do this

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=ruby+tutorial
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=ruby+book

than it does to ask us.
