Sport is the habitual and voluntary cultivation of intensive physical effort.
Holding an Olympic Games means evoking history.
Sport must be accessible to working class youth.
The Olympic Games are the quadrennial celebration of the springtime of humanity.
All sports for all people.
In the name of all competitors I promise that we will take part in these Olympic Games, respecting and abiding by all the rules which govern them, in the true spirit of sportsmanship, for the glory of sport and the honour of our teams.
