In Calgary, near the Bow River, is a small plaza that must have been built as part of the '88 Winter Olympics. Set in metal letters right into the stone surface of the plaza is this sentence:
"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 practice of sport is a human right. Every individual must have the possibility of
practising sport, without discrimination of any kind..."
- The Olympic Charter, Fundamental Principles of Olympism #4
