Now there are two or three teams who are very ethical in their outlook who have opened up the economic benefits and that is probably going to be a turning point in the sport.

There will always be cheaters. It is human nature. It will never be 100 percent clean, in any sport.

People do make mistakes and I think they should be punished. But they should be forgiven and given the opportunity for a second chance. We are human beings.

I was awarded 'Most Aggressive Rider of the Day', generally given to the most spectacular loser of the day.

The manner in which one loses the battle can sometimes outshine the victory.

If you're not at the front, you're not in the race.

Often the best guys are just those that can suffer longer, who don't give up. And it's so easy to give up, when you're on a mountain and it's really hurting. We go through a lot physically.

I had grown used to getting a pat on the back and being told after a good result: 'Well done, David - you should be happy, you're the first clean rider.

I'm an accumulation of every single thing I've done, good and bad.

Of all the mental and physical polluters of life, nothing exercises such a poisonous effect as fear.

As a neighboring funeral terrifies sick misers, and fear obliges them to have some regard for themselves; so, the disgrace of others will often deter tender minds from vice.

If we constantly focus on the stones in our mortal path, we will almost surely miss the beautiful flower or cool stream provided by a loving Father who outlined our journey.

In stand up, you get an awareness of how you come across, but in acting there is almost a hyper-awareness on how you might be physically perceived.

Life is a struggle and not a matter of privilege. It is nothing but one's knowledge of the temporal and the spiritual world.

All other species on this planet are gene machines only. They don't imitate at all well; we alone are gene machines and meme machines as well.
