[Peter Norman]was born and raised under the auspices of his mom and dad being involved in the Salvation Army. He believed in humanity. At all costs, he believed in humanity.

It stands for diversity. It stands for vision and strength. It stands for belief in the right things. That's what I think it stands for.

I think society had to grow up to the mentality of Peter Norman.

Let's start with the black glove. We felt it necessary being the fact that the Olympic Games, for the first time ever [in 1968], had been televised worldwide. The second thing is the fact that it was in Technicolor.

Peter Norman's a man's man.
