All Sports Must Be Treated

Olympism... Exalting And Combining In A Balanced Whole The Qualities Of Body, Mind And Will.

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.

The Olympic Games Were Created For The Exhaltation Of The Individual Athlete.

Success Comprises In Itself The Seeds Of Its Own Decline And Sport Is Not Spared By This Law.

Holding An Olympic Games Means Evoking History.
