Somebody out there was trying to use my language and trying to speak for me. Rather than have that happen, I thought I'd do it myself. It's a fun thing. It's a way for fans to connect.

Kids can still call me Shaq, but adults should call me Dr. O'Neal.

It means I don't have to charter that big jet for the family.

I'm the last in the line of Russells and Chamberlains.

You have to foul me to stop me, period.

One time, I put up 40, 50 points dunking on Shawn Bradley. After the game, he brought his family over. He was like, 'This is my wife. She wants to take a picture.' I'm like, 'Nice to meet you.' I smile into the camera, take the picture, and then feel guilty about dunking on him so many times.

I don't believe that I personally have been changed by the money. The bad thing is people assume you've changed because now you have money.
