More quotes by Lance Armstrong
I've read that I flew up the hills and mountains of France. But you don't fly up a hill. You struggle slowly and painfully up a hill, and maybe, if you work very hard, you get to the top ahead of everybody else.
Lance Armstrong
Cycling is so hard, the suffering is so intense, that it’s absolutely cleansing. The pain is so deep and strong that a curtain descends over your brain….Once someone asked me what pleasure I took in riding for so long. ‘PLEASURE???? I said.’ ‘I don’t understand the question.’ I didn’t do it for the pleasure I did it for the pain.
Lance Armstrong
It works better for me to be nervous and hungry.
Lance Armstrong
I am flawed, deeply flawed. I didn't invent the [doping] culture but I didn't try to stop the culture and that's my mistake, and that's what I have to be sorry for.
Lance Armstrong
It's tougher for me. But I don't think that's imperative to me starting a new movement, or revive an old movement, to help people.
Lance Armstrong
There was certainly a dishonesty there that I think is totally regrettable and inexcusable. The ringleading, the bullying: not totally true.
Lance Armstrong
One of the redeeming things about being an athlete is redefining what is humanly possible.
Lance Armstrong
I wanted to win the Tour de France. And when I won it once, I wanted to do it again, and again, and again, it just kept going. So there wasn't another competitive environment.
Lance Armstrong
I have never doped … I have competed as an endurance athlete for 25 years with no spike in performance, passed more than 500 drug tests and never failed one.
Lance Armstrong
If life gives you lemons, drink the juice in order to mask the presence of performing-enhancing drugs.
Lance Armstrong
We have unrealized capacities that sometimes only emerge in crisis.
Lance Armstrong
I want to die at a hundred years old with an American flag on my back and the star of Texas on my helmet, after screaming down an Alpine descent on a bicycle at 75 miles per hour.
Lance Armstrong
The Europeans look down on raising your hands. They don't like the end-zone dance. I think that's unfortunate. That feeling - the finish line, the last couple of meters - is what motivates me.
Lance Armstrong
I wanted to live, but whether I would or not was mystery, and in the midst of confronting that fact, even at that moment, I was beginning to sense that to stare into the heart of such a fearful mystery wasn't a bad thing. To be afraid is a priceless education. P 99
Lance Armstrong
Two things scare me. The first is getting hurt. But that's not nearly as scary as the second, which is losing.
Lance Armstrong
I didn't just jump back on the bike and win. There were a lot of ups and downs, good results and bad results, but this time I didn't let the lows get to me.
Lance Armstrong
My mother told me...if you're going to get anywhere, you're going to have to do it yourself, because no one is going to do it for you.
Lance Armstrong
If I was racing in 2015, no, I wouldn't do it again because I don't think you have to. If you take me back to 1995, when doping was completely pervasive, I would probably do it again.
Lance Armstrong
It's ironic, I used to ride my bike to make a living. Now I just want to live so that I can ride.
Lance Armstrong
Well, you better ride like you stole something 'cause you are about to win a stage in the Tour de Fance.
