Olympic motto
The Olympic motto is "Citius, Altius, Fortius," which translates to "Faster, Higher, Stronger" in English. This phrase embodies the spirit of the Olympic Games, encouraging athletes to push their limits and strive for excellence in their respective sports. It reflects the ideals of competition, perseverance, and the pursuit of personal bests.
Originally introduced by Pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympics, the motto has been a guiding principle since the first modern Games in 1896. In 2021, the motto was updated to "Citius, Altius, Fortius - Communiter," adding "Together" to emphasize unity and collaboration among athletes and nations.
