More quotes by Lance Armstrong
For 15 years I was a complete arsehole to a dozen people. I said I would try and make it right with those people, and anybody that gave me an audience, I was there.
Lance Armstrong
The idea that anybody was forced, or pressured, or encouraged, is not true.
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 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.

A boo is a lot louder than a cheer.
Lance Armstrong
What ever your 100% looks like, give it.

Lance Armstrong
I joined the swim team when I was 12, and I was the worst kid in the pool - I was put with a group of 7-year-olds.
Lance Armstrong
Anything is possible. You can be told that you have a 90-percent chance or a 50-percent chance or a 1-percent chance, but you have to believe, and you have to fight.
Lance Armstrong
The answer is hard work. What are you doing on Christmas Eve? Are you riding your bike? January 1st - are you riding your bike?
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
Nineteen hundred meters up there is completely different from1,900 any place else. There's no air, there's no oxygen. There's no vegetation, there's no life. There's no life. Rocks. Any other climb there's vegetation, grass and trees. Not there on the Ventoux. It's more like the moon than a mountain.
