More quotes by Charles Barkley
I'm not paid to be a role model. I'm paid to wreak havoc on the basketball court.
Charles Barkley
If you go out with a girl and they say she has a great personality, she's ugly. If they tell you a guy works hard, he can't play a lick. Same thing.
Charles Barkley
I was a Republican until they lost their minds
Charles Barkley
I think it sucks that in our country [the USA] there is such a double standard education-wise. Which part of the city you live in, or something like that, determines if you'll be successful, and that's not fair.

I don't believe professional athletes should be role models. I believe parents should be role models.... It's not like it was when I was growing up. My mom and my grandmother told me how it was going to be. If I didn't like it, they said, Don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out. Parents have to take better control.

Well, when I went off to college, the guys I used to hang with were pumping gas and voting Democrat. Today they're still pumping gas and voting Democrat. Guess the Democrats didn't do much for them.
Charles Barkley
Kids are great. That's one of the best things about our business, all the kids you get to meet. It's a shame they have to grow up to be regular people and come to the games and call you names.
Charles Barkley
I don't know anything about Angola, but Angola's in trouble.
Charles Barkley
My message is simple: take control of your life
Charles Barkley
Curling is not a sport. I called my grandmother and told her she could win a gold medal because they have dusting in the Olympics now.
Charles Barkley
Unfortunately, as I tell my white friends, we as black people, we're never going to be successful not because of you white people but because of other black people.
Charles Barkley
All I know is, as long as I led the Southeastern Conference in scoring, my grades would be fine.
Charles Barkley
I remember sitting down with the Rockets and saying, 'Yeah. I'm going to retire.' They said, 'Well, we'll give you $9 million.' And I said, 'You got a pen on you?'
Charles Barkley
I'm so sick and tired of people in the media telling us that because of the war, sports aren't important. Fans need sports. We'd have only crime and war to watch on TV if not for sports.
Charles Barkley
There's nobody you'd rather beat than your good friend.
