My ruthless desire to win at all costs served me well on the bike but the level it went to, for whatever reason, is a flaw. That desire, that attitude, that arrogance.

More quotes by 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
One of the redeeming things about being an athlete is redefining what is humanly possible.
Lance Armstrong
My mom was such a strong character. I don't want to say she was like a man, but she was tough.
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've read that I flew up the hills and mountains of France. But you don't fly up a hill. You struggle slowly and painfully up a hill, and maybe, if you work very hard, you get to the top ahead of everybody else.
Lance Armstrong
At least I didn't invent a dead girlfriend
Lance Armstrong
That was my decision, so I have to be responsible for that. It was one of the biggest mistakes of my life and I don't have a good reason for why I wanted to come back, I don't have a good reason for doing it all.
Lance Armstrong
I didn't live a lot of lies, but I lived one big one.
Lance Armstrong
I spent a long time trying to build up an organisation [the Lance Armstrong Foundation that changed its name to Livestrong after his confession] to help a lot of people.
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
I may be in timeout forever. But I hope not to be.
Lance Armstrong
I am just coming into my best years. This year I did new things stretching and abdominal work.
Lance Armstrong
What is stronger, fear or hope?
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
I still don't get golf.
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
On a friendship with former president George W. Bush: He's a personal friend, but we've all got the right not to agree with our friends.
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
If you worried about falling off the bike, you'd never get on.
Lance Armstrong
I figure the faster I pedal, the faster I can retire.
Lance Armstrong
