The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.
In the Olympic Oath, I ask for only one thing: sporting loyalty.
Sport must be the heritage of all men and of all social classes.
The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not winning but taking part; the essential thing in life is not conquering but fighting well.
Olympism is a doctrine of the fraternity between the body and the soul.
Swifter, higher, stronger.
