Cancer doesn’t care if you’re Republican or Democrat.

What athletes do may not be that healthy, the way we push our bodies completely over the edge to the degrees that are not human. I've said all along that I will not live as long as the average person.

I got the three things I wanted. I did my job, I worked hard in the process, and I cherish the memories, and they're mine.

Pain is temporary. Eventually it will subside. If I quit, however, the surrender stays with me.

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.

I've given gifts in the Tour de France and it's come back to bit me. So no gifts.
