"Well, you see, I come from a highly educated university, so when I come out here and speak to these white trash, I gotta dumb myself down!"
"See, throughout my career, I've wrestled alotta countries..."
—From Steiner's debate with Christopher Nowinski about the Iraq War, WWE Raw, April 14, 2003. He probably meant, "I've wrestled in alotta countries."
"Tonight, we're gonna beat you at your own game! And after it's all said 'n' done, you're gonna be pickin' splinters outta your FAT ASSES, all night long, 'cuz you got some FAT ASSES! Know what chance you have? You have no chance, but you had a chance, is you could run lickety-split! But you can't run, 'cuz you got some FAT ASSES."
"You know they say all men are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Samoa Joe and you can see that statement is NOT TRUE! See, normally if you go one-on-one with another wrestler you got a 50/50 chance of winning. But I'm a genetic freak, and I'm not normal! So you got a 25% at best at beating me! And then you add Kurt Angle to the mix? Your chances of winning drastic go down. See, the three-way at Sacrifice, you got a 33 1/3 chance of winning. But I—I got a 66 2/3 chance of winning, 'cause Kurt Angle KNOOOWS he can't beat me, and he's not even gonna try. So, Samoa Joe, you take your 33 1/3 chance minus my 25% chance, and you got an 8 1/3 chance of winning at Sacrifice. But then you take my 75% chance of winning (if we was to go one on one), and then add 66 2/3 cha—percent, I got a 141 2/3 chance of winning at Sacrifice! Señor Joe, the numbers don't lie, and they spell disaster for you at Sacrifice!"

"Hailin' from Dunkin' Donuts. From the great state of obesity."
— Scott Steiner on Team 3D, TNA Impact, January 29th, 2009.
"That's right, Mean Gene, I don't lay down for nobody! Whether I leave here a world champion tonight, it don't matter because it's not gonna change my focus on getting even with Goldberg for fractioning (sic) my face! And at Fall Brawl, Goldberg, I'm gonna get even for you fractioning my face, and I'm gonna prove to you that I'm the man with the largest arms in the world! I'm the Genetic Freak, and size does matter! (pauses) That statement, Mean Gene, comes true whether I'm in the ring, or out of the ring. See when I have my freaks horizontal, they understand size, they appreciate size and they know that size does matter. And they know that they don't have to wait for the Earth to rotate on a 47-degree axis, so the stars can touch the sky and create an equinox so they can see the Big Dipper. No no no, all they gotta do is call the Big Poppa, cause I'm the man with the Big Dipper, and satisfaction's coming when I go behind, and do the bump-and-grind, and it's only a matter of time before they call me the Big Bad Booty Daddy! So Goldberg, realize this: I only care about two things in this world: my freaks, and my peaks! (flexes arm) And when I beat your bald ass down at Fall Brawl, and I'm about to put you in the Steiner Recliner, I'm gonna whisper in your ear: Size does matter, bitch!"
— A promo and an astronomy lesson,
WCW Nitro 2000
WCW Nitro 2000"For a guy briefly nicknamed “White Thunder,” Scott Steiner loves to talk about how much he hates “white trash.” In this promo, Steiner conjures some convoluted masculinity-based insults about Diamond Dallas Page, but also says the phrase “white trash” like a dozen times, which sounds truly special with Steiner’s Midwestern accent. You’d think all of this was to set up a feud with Page, but Steiner was actually in a feud with someone else and just wanted to trash DDP with the air time he was given."
