olympic motto

Olympic motto is also called Olympic slogan or motto. The Olympic movement has a famous motto: "Higher, faster and stronger." The motto "Higher, Faster, Stronger" was said by Henri Didon, a good friend of Coubertin and the director of Paris Aquile Monastery, at an outdoor sports meeting held in 1895. He said, "here, your slogan is: higher, faster and stronger."

Coubertin borrowed this sentence and used it in the Olympic movement. 19 13 was approved by the IOC, and 1920 was officially recognized as the Olympic motto by the IOC. It was first used in the Antwerp Olympic Games and became a part of the Olympic symbol. Since then, the Latin words of the Olympic motto "Citius, Artius, Fortius" have appeared in various publications of the International Olympic Committee. The Olympic motto fully expresses the spirit of continuous progress and never-ending struggle advocated by the Olympic Movement. Although there are only six short words, its meaning is very rich. It not only means not to be afraid of strong players and dare to win in competitive sports, but also encourages people to be unwilling to be mediocre in their own lives and work, always full of vitality, keep forging ahead, surpass themselves and exert their potential to the limit.
