The ban doesn't have anything to do with Livestrong or my ability to work in [the cancer] community. Perhaps it speeds it up. I don't know the examples in Great Britain of athletes who have fallen. I know the examples in the United States - the Tiger Woods, the Michael Vicks, even the Bill Clintons - people who are still out there able to work.

Lance Armstrong
Image
I spent a long time trying to build up an organisation [the Lance Armstrong Foundation that changed its name to Livestrong after his confession] to help a lot of people.
Lance Armstrong
Image
Made plenty of mistakes along the way - all of which I am truly sorry.
Lance Armstrong
Image
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
Image
When you know your not going to die, you have to ask yourself... What's the highest and best use for myself.
Lance Armstrong
Image
I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles.

Athletes don't have much use for poking around in their childhoods, because, introspection doesn't get you anywhere in a race.

Cancer doesn’t care if you’re Republican or Democrat.

What is stronger, fear or hope?

I exercise everyday. I swim, I bike, I run and I go to the gym.
Lance Armstrong
Image
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.

The idea that anybody was forced, or pressured, or encouraged, is not true.
