God, he deals you blows that at sometimes you think you can't handle and in the last year there have been things that we thought we couldn't handle but we've dealt with it up until this point.

More quotes by Brett Favre
In my situation, unlike some players who retire because they have no choice - either teams don't want them or injuries have caused them to retire, and they just can't do it - for me, I really had never thought I would give out mentally before I gave out physically, but I think that was the case.
Brett Favre
Every game I've ever played, regardless if it was pre-season or Super Bowl, meant the same to me, and I laid it all on the line.
Brett Favre
But when you lose a family member or something tragic happens, that stays with you forever. You never get over it. Knowing that you have to deal with that for the rest of your life... Football is important, but not as important as you once thought it was.
Brett Favre
You have to believe you're great. You have to have an air about you. My success wasn't because I was a great talent, but because I wanted it more than anybody else. Every minute I step on that field, I want to prove I'm the best player in the league.
Brett Favre
You know, I've had my ups and downs.
Brett Favre
With each game I play, each season I play, everyone would agree with me, I'm running out of chances.
Brett Favre
There wasn't a better teacher or mentor out there than Reggie White, on or off the field.
Brett Favre
I may be a successful football player, but I feel like such a failure.
Brett Favre
I'm pretty boring really.
Brett Favre
So much of a professional athlete's success depends upon not necessarily the play itself but how he deals with... always saying how you deal with good, is just as important as how you deal with bad.
Brett Favre
If I were to make a list, I would include the interceptions, the sacks, the really painful losses. Those times when I've been down, when I've been kicked around, I hold on to those. In a way those are the best times I've ever had, because that's when I've found out who I am. And what I want to be.
Brett Favre
Obviously talent gets you to a certain point, but it's what you do with it, how you handle.
Brett Favre
With each game I play, with each season I play, I'm running out of chances. You're never guaranteed next year. You're never guaranteed the next game. You have to seize the opportunity when it's there in front of you.
Brett Favre
It's fun leading this offense. I don't think we've hit our peak.
Brett Favre
You can lose a game but, I see guys every week including myself, you lose a game, it's a tough loss, you're down, two weeks later you forgot about it. You know it's amazing how down you were, but all of the sudden you're like it never happened.
Brett Favre
The way I played the game, the way I live my life, is very emotional.
Brett Favre
Every day is not perfect. You have your bad days and good days just like anyone else. You do not want to talk to people sometimes. It is normal.
Brett Favre
My job is to throw passes and be a leader.
Brett Favre
Well even before she was diagnosed with the cancer, I would have said that she was a lot tougher than me and most guys would probably say that about their wives and it's probably true in most cases.
Brett Favre
If I can change than anyone can change. I promise you that.
Brett Favre
