My actions and reactions, and the way I treated certain scenarios, were way out of line, so I deserved some punishment.

Pain is only temporary. Quitting is forever!

I didn't live a lot of lies, but I lived one big one.

The last thing I'll say for the people that don't believe in cycling, the cynics and the sceptics, I'm sorry for you. I'm sorry you can't dream big and I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles.

I will spend the rest of my life trying to earn back trust and apologize to people.

I don't think anybody else from my generation had federal agents standing at their door with a badge and a gun, saying: 'You are going to answer my questions'.

Fear is priceless education.
