Modesty should be typical of the success of a champion.

I would like to cite an instance which proves the efficacy of clean living on the part of an athlete coupled with the inspiration received from a champion which go a long way to making a champion.

Modesty should be typical of the success of a champion.

I would advise all youths aspiring to athletic fame or a professional career to practice clean living, fair play and good sportsmanship.

There will always be that dreadful monster prejudice to do extra battle against because of their color.

I do not believe there is any royal road to success as an athlete any more than there is to others in everyday life.

To these ideals which were instilled in me when I was a youth, I attribute in a large degree the success that was mine on the bicycle tracks of the world.
