Even if Madoka isn't particularly good at handling them when they come her way, she knows Yondu is speaking from the heart. He's speaking out of the fondness he holds for her, and that means so much, especially while they're surrounded with the reminder of her failure - her being spirited away by the train, unable to be there to save the world at the exact moment the world for once needed her.
But still, her inability to accept compliments so easily is what - of course - drives her towards making her seem like it's less of an accomplishment than it actually is, quietly piping up.
"I mean, I couldn't wait.. If I didn't try to save the world, no one would."
And that would have been awful.
"Kyubey said that I would become the most powerful magical girl ever if I made a contract with him." And while Kyubey was manipulative as heck - and most likely said that exactly because it would drive her to make a contract - he never lied. "So I knew I was the only one who could do something about this. So.. what other choice would I have then..?"
Especially since Madoka is not the kind of person who can just sit by and watch everything be destroyed. Watch people get hurt.
