Charles Barkley
It's kinda great to see the Celtics doin well again cuz that was so much fun in my day to go to the Boston Garden and they spit at you and throw things at you and talk about your mom. It sounds like dinner at Kenny Smith's house.

I'm just what America needs: another unemployed black man. (on his retirement from basketball)
Charles Barkley
I just wish all these young black kids would realize how significant it is to stop acting a fool out there, killing each other, not getting their education. You know, people have died to put us in a situation to be successful.
Charles Barkley
We don't need refs, but I guess white guys need something to do.
Charles Barkley
The older I get, the faster I was.
Charles Barkley
I like to help poor people who got no chance. If rich people don't, who will? Not other poor people, that's for sure.
Charles Barkley
I think the biggest problem is parents are so concerned with being friends with their kids. You're not their friend. You're their parent.
Charles Barkley
If a guy drew a charge on me, I tried to kick him in the balls.
Charles Barkley
If you can't slam with the best, then jam with the rest.
Charles Barkley
People always say turn the other cheek. If you turn the other cheek, I'm gonna hit you in the other cheek too.
Charles Barkley
I know I'm never as good or bad as one single performance. I've never believed in my critics or my worshippers, and I've always been able to leave the game at the arena.
Charles Barkley
