Olympic

«For too long the world has failed to recognise that the Olympic Games and the Olympic Movement are about fine athletics and fine art.»
«It is the inspiration of the Olympic Games that drives people not only to compete but to improve, and to bring lasting spiritual and moral benefits to the athlete and inspiration to those lucky enough to witness the athletic dedication.»
«An Olympic medal is the greatest achievement and honour that can be received by an athlete. I would swap any World Title to have won gold at the Olympics.»
«My greatest honour was to be included in the Australian Olympic team in 1992, 1996 and hopefully 2000.»
«Everyone here has always treated me like thier daughter. It doesn't matter who it is, and it was even before I won Olympic medals, it was, you know, when I was growing up, they knew I had a goal, they knew I had a dream, and they were willing to help me in any way possible.»

«Holding an Olympic Games means evoking history.»
«In the Olympic Oath, I ask for only one thing: sporting loyalty.»

«Like Olympic medals and tennis trophies, all they signified was that the owner had done something of no benefit to anyone more capably than everyone else.»
«The sportive, knightly battle awakens the best human characteristics. It doesn't separate, but unites the combatants in understanding and respect. He also helps to connect the countries in the spirit of peace. That's why the Olympic Flame should never die.»
«So you wish to conquer in the Olympic games, my friend? And I too, by the Gods, and a fine thing it would be! But first mark the conditions and the consequences, and then set to work. You will have to put yourself under discipline; to eat by rule, to avoid cakes and sweetmeats; to take exercise at the appointed hour whether you like it or no, in cold and heat; to abstain from cold drinks and from wine at your will; in a word, to give yourself over to the trainer as to a physician. Then in the conflict itself you are likely enough to dislocate your wrist or twist your ankle, to swallow a great deal of dust, or to be severely thrashed, and, after all these things, to be defeated.»
