The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.
Det vigtigste ved de olympiske lege er ikke at vinde, men at deltage, ligesom det vigtigste i livet ikke er triumfen, men kampen for den. Det essentielle er ikke at have erobret, men at have kæmpet godt.
