Only By God?s Grace Have I Made

I Always Loved Running.... It Was Something You Could Do By Yourself And Under Your Own Power.

Although I Wasn't Invited To Shake Hands With Hitler, I Wasn't Invited To The White House To Shake Hands With The President Either.

I Wanted No Part Of Politics. And I Wasn't In Berlin To Compete Against Any One Athlete. The Purpose Of The Olympics, Anyway, Was To Do Your Best. As I'd Learned Long Ago From Charles Riley, The Only Victory That Counts Is The One Over Yourself.

One Chance Is All You Need.

For A Time, At Least, I Was The Most Famous Person In The Entire World.
