The story of Petrie became a much-told story in the Olympic Games. For this reason, when Coubertin spoke at the banquet hosted by the British government for the Olympic Games, he adapted a passage from the sermon of the Archbishop of Pennsylvania as follows: "In the Olympic Games, the most important thing is not to win, but to participate, just as the most important thing in life is not to win, but to struggle, not to conquer, but to strive hard." Since 1908, this famous saying has become the belief of the Olympic movement and has been passed down to this day.
Olympic motto-Faster, Higher and Stronger The Olympic Movement also has a famous motto: "Faster, Higher and Stronger." From Coubertin's good friend, Dean Didong of Paris Aguirre Abbey. 1895, at an outdoor sports meeting held at school, Didong encouraged students to say, "Here, your slogan is: Faster, higher and stronger." Later, Coubertin used this sentence in the Olympic Movement. 1920, officially recognized by the International Olympic Committee as the Olympic motto, was first used in the Antwerp Olympic Games.
Olympic motto-the meaning of motto 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 that people should not be afraid of strong players, dare to struggle and dare to win in competitive sports, but also encourages people to never be mediocre, full of vitality, keep forging ahead, surpass themselves and exert their potential to the limit.
