Citius

Most often heard as part of the (Summer) Olympic Motto; Citius, Altius, Fortius; Swifter, Higher, Stronger

Baron de Coubertin borrowed the motto from Father Henri Martin Dideon, the headmaster of Arcueil College in Paris. Father Dideon used the motto to describe the great achievements of the athletes at his school. Coubertin felt it could be used to describe the goals of great athletes all over the World.
