“ Holding an Olympic Games means evoking history. ”
Olympism seeks to create a way of life based on the joy found in effort, the educational value of a good example and respect for universal fundamental ethical principles.
~ Pierre De Coubertin
All sports must be treated on the basis of equality.
The Olympic Spirit is neither the property of one race nor of one age.
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.
