Well 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.

Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place.

This is a hard tour and hard work wins it.

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say. Enough is enough.

I look forward to a time when lawyers aren’t in the top three calls every day, and all you care about is how your kids are doing in school or what the weather’s like and the great day you had with your family.

I would love to be in a place, and I may never get there, where I can help people. It’s something that I never really cared to advertise. It got advertised. I still do it on one-on-one level almost daily.

I have never doped. I can say it again, but I’ve said it for seven years.

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.

A bike ride. Yes, that’s it! A simple bike ride. It’s what I love to do and most days I can’t believe they pay me to do it. A day is not the same without it...
