I don't just hop in the car. I have destinations. I drive to relax. I'll be gone for two weeks, hit four or five major cities. I don't like being nowhere for more than two or three days. I just go. I don't have a schedule.

One of the things about the NBA is anybody could be traded.

Chicago was a good place for me. Maybe New York will be better.

I was in New York, I went to a Yankees game and I called and said, 'Can I get tickets to the Knicks game?' They said, 'We can't get you tickets no more to the Knicks game.'... They had tickets, but they said they didn't have no tickets for me.

You can't play Around the World in the NBA, you've gotta go to the basket.

I just want to let the fans know I don't hate the Knicks. I love the Knicks.

My thing is, when Barkley played basketball, he didn't practice, he wasn't a leader, he wasn't this or that, he just had natural talent so he got chosen to the Dream Team, All Star team because he had the talent and he was the franchise player on the team.

If you're out after 6 o'clock, have a jacket on, because you might go somewhere. People say, 'Oh, I ain't dressed for it.' But if you have a jacket on, you can go anywhere.

People hate to go out to eat with me because they know I'm going to send it back. Like, I'm trying to order simple. But don't blame me if you bring out the wrong stuff.

If you're picky, you have to learn about cooking.

I don't like 7-footers shooting threes, it's a disrespect to the game for me.

Back in our day and era, you had to have your potential and be ready to play right away. Everybody was talented.

We had guys come out of high school, Moses Malone, Kevin Garnett, LeBron James, but all these guys could play.

I just tried to go out there and play with attitude, doing what I was supposed to do and knowing my role on the team. Doing what my team expected me to do every night, not just once a week. It was all about work and I was just a tough guy who would knock somebody down.

If you see a man kiss me, I better be in my casket.

I ask everybody, who's the best between Magic and LeBron? Everyone says Michael's greatest. But, OK, well, we'll give him his props. But LeBron is a better athlete, and he can do more than Michael on the basketball court.

If I would compare anybody to Michael Jordan, it would be Kobe Bryant.

I just don't like when you preach one thing and do something else.

They told me many times throughout my career to bite my tongue and I told them my tongue's been bleeding since I was born.

One guy can't make a team better.

It's been so overwhelming, the people in New York. That's why they call New York, New York - because they care about things and know real situations. My love for the fans, it's mouth-dropping.

I'm in New York every two weeks. I don't have to ring a bell when I come to the city. I just do what I'm supposed to do when I'm in the city. I don't shy away.

Do me a favor and don't make me out to be no hero.

I always try to treat people with respect and I just don't know. I got three assault cases for no reason.
