“As soon as you take money for playing sport, it isn't sport, it's work...” — Avery Brundage Quote

“As soon as you take money for playing sport, it isn't sport, it's work.”

“For too long the world has failed to recognise that the Olympic Games and the Olympic Movement are about fine athletics and fine art.”

“The Olympic Games must not be an end in itself, they must be a means of creating a vast programme of physical education and sports competitions for all young people.”

“I never want to feel that I'm playing it safe.”

“I love playing for people.”

“Play and pray; but on the whole do not pray when you are playing and do not play when you are praying.”
