The way you live your life, the perspective you select, is a choice you make every single day when you wake up. It's yours to decide.

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.

If you worried about falling off the bike, you'd never get on.

It's simple. Success comes from training harder, living better and digging deeper than the others.

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

I wanted to win the Tour de France. And when I won it once, I wanted to do it again, and again, and again, it just kept going. So there wasn't another competitive environment.
