Holding An Olympic Games Means Evoking History.

Olympism Is Not A System - It Is A State Of Mind. This State Of Mind Has Emerged From A Double Cult: That Of Effort And That Of Eurythmy - A Taste Of Excess And A Taste Of Measure Combined.

The Olympic Flag [] Has A White Background, With Five Interlaced Rings In The Centre: Blue, Yellow, Black, Green And Red []. This Design Is Symbolic; It Represents The Five Continents Of The World, United By Olympism, While The Six Colours Are Those That Appear On All The National Flags Of The World At The Present Time.

All Sports Must Be Treated On The Basis Of Equality.

Swifter, Higher, Stronger.

May Joy And Good Fellowship Reign, And In This Manner, May The Olympic Torch Pursue Its Way Through Ages, Increasing Friendly Understanding Among Nations, For The Good Of A Humanity Always More Enthusiastic, More Courageous And More Pure.
