More quotes by Charles Barkley
Half Man, Half Sit-Out-The-Season.
Charles Barkley
They run like deer, jump like deer and think like deer.
Charles Barkley
They always try to make it like jocks discriminate against gay people. I've been a big proponent of gay marriage for a long time, because as a black person, I can't be in for any form of discrimination at all.
Charles Barkley
Any time a little midget does something like this, you gotta give him a 10!.

My family got all over me because they said Bush is only for the rich people. Then I reminded them, 'Hey, I'm rich'.
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
I'm not paid to be a role model. I'm paid to wreak havoc on the basketball court.
Charles Barkley
We're not all supposed to think alike.

Charles Barkley
Adrian Dantley is a guy that I looked at . . . on how to maneuver my body around.
Charles Barkley
It bothers me when I hear these reporters and jocks get on TV and say: 'Oh, no guy can come out in a team sport. These guys would go crazy.' First of all, quit telling me what I think. I'd rather have a gay guy who can play than a straight guy who can't play.
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
He'll never be Jordan. This clearly takes him out of the conversation. He can win as much as he wants to.
Charles Barkley
Look, I'm in the top 20 of players who ever lived.
Charles Barkley
The older I get, the faster I was.
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
I'm afraid of the skeletons in my closet. I've got a whole cemetery full of them.
Charles Barkley
Most sportswriters don't know their ass from a hole in the ground.
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
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.
