19) “Unfortunately, as I tell my white friends, we as black people, we’re never going to be successful, not because of you white people, but because of other black people. When you’re black, you have to deal with so much crap in your life from other black people. It’s a dirty, dark secret; I’m glad it’s coming out.

…One of the reasons we’re never going to be successful as a whole, is because of other black people. And for some reason, we are brainwashed to think, if you’re not a thug or an idiot, you’re not black enough. If you go to school, make good grades, speak intelligently, and don’t break the law, you’re not a good black person. And it’s a dirty, dark secret.

…There are a lot of black people who are unintelligent, who don’t have success. It’s best to knock a successful black person down because they’re intelligent, they speak well, they do well in school, and they’re successful… We’re the only ethnic group who say, ‘Hey, if you go to jail, it gives you street cred.’ It’s just typical BS that goes on when you’re black, man.” — Charles Barkley

20) “In the past, if a 21-year-old said they had ‘trauma’, or were on the receiving end of ‘violence,’ it usually meant they’d seen their mates get blown up in the trenches, or had been shot. Now it just means they saw a Tweet.” — Charlotte Gill

Barkley’s quote was basically wrapped in the classic Chris Rock “Black People Vs. N_____s” routine.

18) “Conservatives say ‘you can be somebody.’ Liberals say ‘you should hate somebody.’” — Carl Jackson

Best 'short and sweet'

9) “To me, it’s a sign of intellectual weakness. If you can’t ask Ann Coulter in a polite way questions which expose the weakness of her arguments, if all you can do is boo, or shut her down, or prevent her from coming, what does that tell the world? What are you afraid of? Her ideas? Ask her the hard questions. Confront her intellectually. Booing people down, or intimidating people, or shutting down events, I don’t think that that works in any way.” — Bernie Sanders

Most surprising...

3) “Modern journalism is all about deciding which facts the public shouldn’t know because they might reflect badly on Democrats.” — Jim Treacher

Saddest and truest...

2) “What I see all over the place is people who care about looking good, while doing evil. F*** them." — Elon Musk

Sad, real and insightful

I do not know who she quoting, but my junior high granddaughter came up with:

“Whiteboards are the most remarkable invention in the last 50 years.”
