More quotes by Charles Barkley
I don't how anybody taller than 6-4 can sit in those seats. And the airline executives don't give a damn 'cause they never walk back there in the first place. I don't fly first class because I have a lot of money. I do it because I need the room.

Charles Barkley
It ain't like we're curing cancer or anything, we're watching basketball.
Charles Barkley
I think that the team that wins game five will win the series. Unless we lose game five.
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.
Charles Barkley
When you're black, you have to deal with so much crap in your life from other black people. It's a dirty, dark secret I'm glad it's coming out.
Charles Barkley
If you're scarde to fail, you don't deserve to be successful.
Charles Barkley
I want her to understand that it's going to be a factor in her life. I just want her to know that (racism) does exist, and I want her to always be diligent, and if she sees it, address it and fight it.
Charles Barkley
I'm never embarassed.
