Brett Favre
It's been a wonderful career, I couldn't ask for anything more.
I'm proud of everything I've done.
I think people have all faced decisions at times where you never know.
My intention... isn't to create controversy.
I've been pretty fortunate.
The way I played the game, the way I live my life, is very emotional.
You know, I've had my ups and downs.
You know I used to listen to music a lot more.
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.Collection: Believe
Most talented players don't always succeed. Some don't even make the team. It's more what's inside.Collection: Inspirational
I've always shown up, always been prepared. Everything I do comes back to the example I want to set.Collection: Example
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.Collection: Loss
It's all about chemistry. Talent alone won't get it done.Collection: Sports
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.Collection: Running
The good teams are good at what they do.Collection: Team
I consider adversity being good sometimes you know.Collection: Adversity
I know I can still play, but it's like I told my wife, I'm just tired mentally. I'm just tired.Collection: Tired
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.Collection: Humble
Yip cabbage on three!Collection: Three
There wasn't a better teacher or mentor out there than Reggie White, on or off the field.Collection: Football
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.Collection: Bad Day
I didn't know what to expect coming into this year. There were a lot of question marks, and I think that's obvious now. Can we overcome it? Time will tell.Collection: Football
I never thought I would see it. I’m not saying it’s not possible. I’m not saying it didn’t happen. I don’t know. There’s a lot of guys getting picked on (in the locker room). Some handle it well, some don’t handle it as well. I’m not saying it’s right, and from a locker room sense or from a team sense, I’m not saying it’s wrong. It’s just the way it is.Collection: Team
I was serious about retiring the first time, but the first week I was home my wife had SO many chores to do I went back.Collection: Home
I'd write over and over, 'I will not throw into coverage.'Collection: Football
It’s fun leading this offense. I don’t think we’ve hit our peak.Collection: Fun
