If I can't face my accusers, that's a joke. We did that in medieval times.

I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in winning my seven Tours since 1999.

Winning is about heart, not just legs. It's got to be in the right place.

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. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.

It's difficult to know when to set boundaries around your health at work because the decline is so gradual. Allowing stress to build up, losing sleep, and sitting all day without exercising all add up.

When people around me are getting rattled, I may just close my eyes and do a breathing exercise.

This is a matter of public health. The public was sick and tired of DeLay and his corruption.

This is a historic moment in global public health, demonstrating the international will to tackle a threat to health head on.
