More quotes by Lance Armstrong
A bike ride. Yes, that's it! A simple bike ride. It's what I love to do and most days I can't believe they pay me to do it. A day is not the same without it.
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
I still don't get golf.
Lance Armstrong
What is stronger, fear or hope?
Lance Armstrong
The unwillingness to accept anything short of victory, that underlying fury, is the fundamental building block of my bottomless motivation to succeed. It is my credo in all that I do in life from battling cancer to bicycle racing.
Lance Armstrong
The idea that anybody was forced, or pressured, or encouraged, is not true.
Lance Armstrong

Lance Armstrong
Fear is priceless education.
Lance Armstrong
If you worried about falling off the bike, you'd never get on.
Lance Armstrong

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

Lance Armstrong
The riskiest thing you can do is get greedy.
Lance Armstrong
Hope that is the only antidote to fear.
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
We have unrealized capacities that sometimes only emerge in crisis.
Lance Armstrong
I can get up in the morning and look myself in the mirror and my family can look at me too and that's all that matters.
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
I may be in timeout forever. But I hope not to be.
Lance Armstrong
My house is burned, but I can see the sky.
Lance Armstrong
