More quotes by Lance Armstrong
Pain is temporary. Eventually it will subside. If I quit, however, the surrender stays with me.
Lance Armstrong
I have never doped. I can say it again, but I've said it for seven years.
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
If there is a defining characteristic of a man as opposed to a boy, maybe it's patience.
Lance Armstrong
I've given gifts in the Tour de France and it's come back to bit me. So no gifts.
Lance Armstrong
Winning is about heart, not just legs. It's got to be in the right place.
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
The riskiest thing you can do is get greedy.
Lance Armstrong
I guess if I looked at it from an athletic standpoint, I don't really need to win another Tour. Seven Tours for me was a dream, six broke the record, so that eight doesn't really mean much.
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
Hope that is the only antidote to fear.
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
At least I didn't invent a dead girlfriend
Lance Armstrong
I tried to control the narrative.
Lance Armstrong
I can get up in the morning and look myself in the mirror and my family can look at me too and that's all that matters.
Lance Armstrong
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.
Lance Armstrong
I exercise everyday. I swim, I bike, I run and I go to the gym.
Lance Armstrong
Average is Your Enemy.
Lance Armstrong
I figure the faster I pedal, the faster I can retire.
Lance Armstrong
