More quotes by 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
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
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.
Lance Armstrong
I didn't invent the culture, but I didn't try to stop the culture.
Lance Armstrong
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
Knowledge is power, community is strength and positive attitude is everything
Lance Armstrong
If a script writer had come up with a story resembling what you have just achieved, even the Hollywood studios would have refused.
Lance Armstrong
When I was sick, I didn't want to die. When I race, I don't want to lose. Dying and losing, it's the same thing.
Lance Armstrong
We sped on, across the plains, toward Metz. I hung back, saving myself. It is called the Race of Truth. The early stages separate the strong riders from the weak. Now the weak would be eliminated altogether.
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
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
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
Motivation can't take you very far if you don't have the legs.
Lance Armstrong
One of the redeeming things about being an athlete is redefining what is humanly possible.
Lance Armstrong
People refer to 'the good ol' days', but I don't know what they're talking about. As someone who's battled cancer, if I lived more than 20 years ago, I'd be a dead man.
Lance Armstrong
Well, you better ride like you stole something 'cause you are about to win a stage in the Tour de Fance.
Lance Armstrong
I am just coming into my best years. This year I did new things stretching and abdominal work.
Lance Armstrong
You can teach someone how to control their strength, but you can't teach them to be strong.
Lance Armstrong
We have unrealized capacities that sometimes only emerge in crisis.
Lance Armstrong
Regardless of one victory, two victories, four victories, there's never been a victory by a cancer survivor. That's a fact that hopefully I'll be remembered for.
