More quotes by Wilt Chamberlain
I think a lot of ladies found me so attractive because I was different, and I acted on that in a way.
Wilt Chamberlain
It was a different sexual situation going on than it is in the '80s and '90s, and I did a very poor job of describing that.
Wilt Chamberlain
I guarantee you, if you could give me 10 points in all those seventh games against the Boston Celtics, instead of Bill Russell having 11 rings, I could've at least had nine or eight.
Wilt Chamberlain
With all of you men out there who think that having a thousand different ladies is pretty cool, I have learned in my life I've found out that having one woman a thousand different times is much more satisfying.
Wilt Chamberlain
He fouled out in the fourth quarter, and that's when I really started getting points. He was no more at fault than anyone.
Wilt Chamberlain
Everything is habit-forming, so make sure what you do is what you want to be doing.
Wilt Chamberlain
If I were given a change of life, I'd like to see how it would be to live as a mere six-footer.
Wilt Chamberlain
The toughest thing for me was growing up and being stared at and being looked at and being talked about in that particular way. Other than that it was a good childhood.
Wilt Chamberlain
All of the sudden, my right leg caved in. I crumpled to the floor in pain. The doctor weren't sure I'd ever be able to play again...and even if I did recover physically, the psychological scars of so traumatic an injury might never heal.
Wilt Chamberlain
That's my tag, whether I like it or not.
Wilt Chamberlain
People say my ego is grand. I think it's in proportion to me.
Wilt Chamberlain
When you go out there and do the things you're supposed to do, people view you as selfish.
Wilt Chamberlain
My thing I liked was to challenge guys that were smaller, guys that were supposed to be quicker. Because I think self-consciously I was trying to prove to people it wasn't just my height that was getting me across in these various sports. It was some other intrinsic things that I had that made me a good athlete.
Wilt Chamberlain
Monogamy is the true path to happiness.
Wilt Chamberlain
They were so clever finding ways to get me the ball. They had to do more than just give up open shots. They had to avoid fouls and pass me the ball in traffic.
Wilt Chamberlain
Scoring 100 points is a lot, but I maybe could have scored 140 if they had played straight-up basketball.
Wilt Chamberlain
I was played the villain so much because I was bigger and stronger than most, and they cast me as the villain everywhere I went.
Wilt Chamberlain
It is said that good things come to those who wait. I believe that good things come to those who work.
Wilt Chamberlain
It just wasn't right the way they were behind by 25 points and then they're told to hold the ball.
Wilt Chamberlain
Meadowlark was the most sensational, awesome, incredible basketball player I've ever seen.
Wilt Chamberlain
