Racial Distinctions Should Not Play A Role

Festival Of The Impassioned Efforts And Manifold Ambitions Of All Forms Of Youthful Activity Of Every Generation Springing From The Threshold Of Life.

The Olympic Games Are For The World And All Nations Must Be Admitted To Them.

Sport Is Part Of Every Man And Woman's Heritage And Its Absence Can Never Be Compensated For.

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.

In The Olympic Oath, I Ask For Only One Thing: Sporting Loyalty.
