I guess if a person never quit when the going got tough, they wouldn't have anything to regret for the rest of their life.

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.

I still don't get golf.

The idea that anybody was forced, or pressured, or encouraged, is not true.

My mother told me...if you're going to get anywhere, you're going to have to do it yourself, because no one is going to do it for you.

I figure the faster I pedal, the faster I can retire.

If you go to Wikipedia and you look at the Tour de France, there's this huge block in World War One with no winners, and there's another block in World War Two. And then it seems like there's another world war.
