Sport must be accessible to working class youth.
May joy and good fellowship reign, and in this manner, may the Olympic Torch pursue its way through ages, increasing friendly understanding among nations, for the good of a humanity always more enthusiastic, more courageous and more pure.
The Olympic Games were created for the exhaltation of the individual athlete.
Swifter, higher, stronger.
The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.
For me sport was a religion... with religious sentiment.
