Olympism Is Not A System - It

The Day When A Sportsman Stops Thinking Above All Else Of The Happiness In His Own Effort And The Intoxication Of The Power And Physical Balance He Derives From It, The Day When He Lets Considerations Of Vanity Or Interest Take Over, On This Day His Ideal Will Die.

All Sports For All People.

Swifter, Higher, Stronger.

Success Comprises In Itself The Seeds Of Its Own Decline And Sport Is Not Spared By This Law.

The Most Important Thing In The Olympic Games Is Not To Win But To Take Part, Just As The Most Important Thing In Life Is Not The Triumph But The Struggle. The Essential Thing Is Not To Have Conquered But To Have Fought Well.
