More quotes by Lance Armstrong

Lance Armstrong
But, listen, Eddie Merkyx would have won six Tours if he hadn't been punched.
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
Everybody wants to know what I'm on. What am I on? I'm on my bike busting my ass six hours a day. What are you on?
Lance Armstrong
I'm cycling to take cancer message worldwide.
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
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
So if there is a purpose to the suffering that is cancer, I think it must be this: it's meant to improve us.
Lance Armstrong
I figure the faster I pedal, the faster I can retire.
Lance Armstrong
It's nice to win. I'll never win again. I may have to take up golf - take on Tiger.
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
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
It works better for me to be nervous and hungry.
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
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.
Lance Armstrong
My greatest point is my persistence... However down I am, I fight until the last ball.
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
Marathons are hard because of the physical pain, the pounding on the muscles, joints, tendons.
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.
Lance Armstrong
To all the cynics, I'm sorry for you. I'm sorry you can't believe in miracles. This is a great sporting event and hard work wins it.
Lance Armstrong
