Shaquille O’Neal's Quotes

  • [When asked whether he had visited the Parthenon during his trip to Greece:] "I can't really remember the names of the clubs that we went to."
  • [2012, on Kazaam (1996)] I was a medium-level juvenile delinquent from Newark who always dreamed about doing a movie. Someone said, "Hey, here's $7 million, come in and do this genie movie." What am I going to say, no? So I did it.
  • It's true. The Earth is flat. The Earth is flat. Yes, it is.
