Kurt Warner

Profession : Athlete

Birth : June 22, 1971

When I'm talking about one of the things that define my career and what is most special to me, stats, they are what they are. The bottom line is you want to impact the place you go and the people you're around, and I hope I've done that in my football career, both on and off the field.

I never doubted myself.

Kurt Warner

It's not the way I threw the football - it's not particular games that I won - but that they remember that here's a guy that believed, that worked hard. Although things didn't always go in his favor, he continued to press through, and with his faith in himself and his faith in God, he was able to accomplish great things.

The reality is you don't have to be the No. 1 pick to make it big anymore.

So many guys come onto the scene who aren't supposed to be there. You pull for one, and then you see there's another and another and another, and you start to say, 'Who cares where a player was drafted? He can play football, and he can play at this level.'

Kurt Warner

No matter how badly you play, you want to come out healthy.

Kurt Warner

There is nothing better than playing for the championship at any level of football.

I was lucky enough to play in three Super Bowls and two Arena Bowls.

I believe that I've got a unique knowledge and understanding of this game, and I'm able to see it differently than a lot of people.

I've done things that people in this league will never do.

Any time you make a change, and a major change, as you try to establish something, there's a lot of question marks there on what's going to happen moving forward.

Kurt Warner

It's a great game, and it's done great things for me and my family, but the bottom line is when I'm done, I want to be able to walk away and be everything I need to be for my family.

Kurt Warner

That's what you kind of see with Matthew Stafford. He makes some incredible plays, even with his arm in different positions. But the consistency's not there that you need at the position to be one of the top quarterbacks in the league, and I think that's where cleaning up the technique will help.

Kurt Warner

If you can stand up for your faith when you're on top, you can stand up for it now that you're at the bottom.

Kurt Warner

I've always said, if everything was equal, from money to retirement to endorsement opportunities - all that stuff - if everything was equal, I'd play Arena football over the NFL. It was built for quarterbacks. It was just backyard football.

Kurt Warner

I don't think there's any question that the Arena League allowed me to flourish. I played three years in a league where the quarterback wasn't supposed to be stopped. We never wanted to kick. When I went into the NFL, I had that same mentality.

Kurt Warner

People think that whatever happens on the football field should define me way one or the other. A lot of people say, 'I can't believe you don't think more highly of yourself, two-time MVP, Super Bowl MVP,' but it's like, whatever. It just happens to be what I do. I want to be defined by what I believe in, by who I am.

Kurt Warner

I don't think anyone has a bad perception of me. Just a limited one. Everyone thinks I pretty much sit around and talk about Jesus all the time. But I'm normal. I'm just a guy. Yeah, I love Jesus and do things a bit different, but I have the same conversations and share the same thoughts as anyone else.

Kurt Warner

I think, a lot of times, where people see they're insufficient or lacking in certain areas, they feel they're being judged even when they're not. And they condemn themselves more than anyone else does.

Kurt Warner

Anytime you mention Jesus or faith, people are turned off. I think it scares a lot of people.
