Quote

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.

You're only as good as your last pass.

Nothing, for the most part, surprises me anymore.

Because after my first year I had a lot of success, took everybody by storm, came back the next year thought it was easy and didn't have near the season I had the previous year. It was kind of a wake-up call. And so, life goes on.

I'd like to think, eight years ago, I was pretty humble and modest. But I think, with each year, you get more modest, more humble, more appreciative. The off the field tragedies put things in better perspective, but life happens to everybody, and I think we all just try to do the best we can.

I don't worry anymore about where's the big hangout Tuesday night, Friday. Couldn't tell you and no one comes to me for advice anymore in those areas anymore, so real boring I would say.
Brett Favre
Image
Just, you never know what the next day is going to bring. That goes for football, goes for off the field, and I gave up a long time ago trying to predict the future and trying to deal with things I couldn't deal with.
Brett Favre

There was a time when all I cared about was the next game, the next party, the next tee time.
Brett Favre

You know, I've had my ups and downs.
Brett Favre
Image
I think people have all faced decisions at times where you never know.
Brett Favre
Image
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
Image
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

There wasn't a better teacher or mentor out there than Reggie White, on or off the field.

Every day is not perfect.
Brett Favre
Image
Obviously talent gets you to a certain point, but it's what you do with it, how you handle.
Brett Favre
Image
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.
Brett Favre
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Well family is obviously the most important. There was a time when I thought football was the most important.
Brett Favre
Image
You're never guaranteed about next year. People ask what you think of next season, you have to seize the opportunities when they're in front of you.
Brett Favre
Image
And having a strong family, you know we've lost some members of our family and had some setbacks, but I think a good family and kids all those things I thought at one time... you got to be kidding me... Those things are so important they enable you to go on.
