Wilt Chamberlain
When you go out there and do the things you're supposed to do, people view you as selfish.
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
