Olympism... exalting and combining in a balanced whole the qualities of body, mind and will.
Sport is the habitual and voluntary cultivation of intensive physical effort.
The Olympic Spirit is neither the property of one race nor of one age.
In the Olympic Oath, I ask for only one thing: sporting loyalty.
Festival of the impassioned efforts and manifold ambitions of all forms of youthful activity of every generation springing from the threshold of life.
In no way can sport be considered a luxury object.
