More quotes by Lance Armstrong

Lance Armstrong
Knowledge is power, community is strength and positive attitude is everything
Lance Armstrong

Lance Armstrong
I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in winning my seven Tours since 1999.
Lance Armstrong
It's tougher for me. But I don't think that's imperative to me starting a new movement, or revive an old movement, to help people.

Lance Armstrong
I have never doped. I can say it again, but I've said it for seven years.
Lance Armstrong

Lance Armstrong
You can teach someone how to control their strength, but you can't teach them to be strong.
Lance Armstrong
If there is a defining characteristic of a man as opposed to a boy, maybe it's patience.
Lance Armstrong
What ever your 100% looks like, give it.
Lance Armstrong
It's frustrating in the sense that I still think I could be competing at some sport at a fairly high level, which nobody cares about. Nobody wants to hear me say that.
Lance Armstrong
It's funny, because I have periods where I just kind of go dark. I don't tweet, I don't talk, I don't interview, and then I have times where I do.
Lance Armstrong
I have never had a single positive doping test, and I do not take performance-enhancing drugs.
Lance Armstrong
A bicycle is the long-sought means of transportation for all of us who have runaway hearts.
Lance Armstrong
I have never doped … I have competed as an endurance athlete for 25 years with no spike in performance, passed more than 500 drug tests and never failed one.
Lance Armstrong
