One must not cheat anyone, not even the world of its victory.

Rather fail with honor than succeed by fraud.

There could be no honor in a sure success, but much might be wrested from a sure defeat.

Honor has not to be won; it must only not be lost.

I have never cheated anybody out of a victory, I have worked hard for every single race that I have won.

It is easier to win than to fail. Everybody sides with the winner. But the failure walks alone.

I'm not a cheater, but if I win Olympic gold and people are looking at me and saying I am a cheat because I've won, it's hugely disrespectful given the hard work I've put in.

I don't mind losing, but I don't like losing to cheats.

We are more likely to cheat if we see others doing so. We tend to conform to accepted norms of reasonable behaviour, rather than adhere to strict rules.
