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.
Lance Armstrong
Image
I know what happened to my foundation, from raising no money to raising $500m, serving three million people. Do we want to take that away? I don't think anybody says yes.
Lance Armstrong
Image
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
Image
I have never had a single positive doping test, and I do not take performance-enhancing drugs.
Lance Armstrong
Image
Your past forms you, whether you like it or not. Each encounter and experience has its own effect, and you're shaped the way the wind shapes a mesquite tree on a plain.
Lance Armstrong
Image
My career is going to be played out year by year. Will I be here in 2004? I don't know. The record won't keep me here. Happiness will.

Image
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.

Image
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.

Image
A boo is a lot louder than a cheer, if you have 10 people cheering and one person booing, all you hear is the booing.
Lance Armstrong
Image
That was my decision, so I have to be responsible for that. It was one of the biggest mistakes of my life and I don't have a good reason for why I wanted to come back, I don't have a good reason for doing it all.
Lance Armstrong
Image
Nobody wants to hear how I think I've been mistreated, or how I think my punishment should be lifted, or tweaked, or reduced. Nobody wants to hear me say that, nobody cares what I think about this. I get it.
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.
Lance Armstrong
Image
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.

Cancer doesn’t care if you’re Republican or Democrat.
Lance Armstrong
Image
I exercise everyday. I swim, I bike, I run and I go to the gym.
Lance Armstrong
Image
There was certainly a dishonesty there that I think is totally regrettable and inexcusable. The ringleading, the bullying: not totally true.
Lance Armstrong
Image
Chasing records doesn't keep me on my bike. Happiness does.
Lance Armstrong
Image
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.

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