We're having too many fundamental mistakes. We need to learn how to overcome those.
I'm done with the nicknames. Actually, when I obtain my doctorate, I will not allow people to call me Shaq anymore, either.
My job has always been to entertain people. I want people to laugh.
When I'm done playing basketball, I want do something bigger. I'm working on my doctorate right now at Barry University in Florida.
Donald Trump is a great friend, and he has four or five Picassos on his plane. And that's where I would look at them.
I'm tired of hearing about money, money, money, money, money.
I've met a lot of artists who wanted to paint me. LeRoy Neiman was one. He did it from a photograph. He made 20,000 copies, and we sold them all.
Art is a process of delivering or arranging elements that appeal to the emotions of a person looking at it. It's what you feel.
When I tweet, I try and accomplish three things. One, is to make you laugh. Two, is to inform you. Three, is to enlighten you. That's all I do.
Every time I do something silly, it comes off really funny because it's natural.
Whenever I see a celebrity that comes to watch me play, I'm going to do for them the same thing they've done for me - bring them some type of joy.
We know when we have a performance like that most of the time we're going to hear it.
We live in an impatient world. Everybody is always looking for the next big Kobe, the next big LeBron, the next big Twitter.
I love race car drivers, I love gymnastics, I love UFC, I love police officers, I love firefighters. I just try to give them the same enjoyment they give me.
