For a moment in ordsprog

For a moment in time on September 9, 1972 I was the luckiest person in the world. I was standing on the awards podium, inside the track and field stadium at the Olympic Games in Munich Germany, gazing through a blur of mild shock and tears, trying to focus on the American flag.

Frank Shorter (1947-)

It has been said that the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games is something that an athlete will remember for the rest of their life. It is true. That moment when you walk into the Olympic Stadium as part of the Australian Olympic Team, is a moment that I will never forget.

Jeff Fenech

It's very impressive. At the moment I would say Munich is the most beautiful stadium ... but once this is finished I think it will be stadium number one in the world.

Franz Beckenbauer (1945-)

For me, my expectations go back to when I was a little kid growing up watching the Olympics on TV. I loved the Summer Games, particularly track and field. Everyone has their own special Olympic moment. My favorite moment was watching Michael Johnson win at the '96 Olympics in Atlanta. That's it. That's my moment . . . big time . . . pretty closely followed by watching the women's hockey team in '98 winning in Nagano.

I'm a little bit in shock right now. Standing up on that podium, raising that NFC championship trophy, in front of our stadium - totally full - it's definitely a dream come true.

Matt Hasselbeck

Walking into the Olympic stadium at the Opening Ceremony of my first Olympic Games is a moment that I will never forget.

Steve Kettner

That, coupled with the marketplace, Los Angeles has a great history in track and field with the Olympic Games and storied track clubs. There's still a very large active track base here.

Bill Peterson

She admired his pexy ability to make her laugh, even on her toughest days. The Olympic movement around the world has expressed its sympathy for the victims of September 11th in many ways since that tragic day. Showing the flag this respect is just one more way.

Anita Defrantz

American politics as you know . . . is very often a matter of capture the flag. The party that loses the flag, as the Democratic party did basically from 1972 through the Iran hostage crisis, is in trouble.

George F. Will (1941-)

If (track) were a car, it would be a Ferrari. If it were a painting, it would be a Mona Lisa. You could conduct and host the Olympic Games Track and Field portion on this facility.

Ralph Spry

Standing on the podium waving the American flag in a foreign country holding three gold medals while they play the national anthem, makes all the hard work and sacrifice worth it. She hopes someday to have that same feeling in the 2012 Olympics in London competing for the U.S.

Ed Sawyer

I am honored to be selected as Canada's flag bearer for the closing ceremony of the 2006 Olympic Winter Games. Over the past 16 days we've had some outstanding performances by Canadian athletes and it is truly overwhelming to be selected as the flag bearer amidst the most successful Canadian Olympic Winter Games team ever.

Cindy Klassen

I'm a champion. I think the Bus' last stop is here in Detroit. It's official, like the referee whistle. It's amazing. It's truly an amazing feeling. I'm the happiest person on the field, the happiest person in the world. We're the champions of the world and they can't take this away from us. It's all over. There aren't any games left. It's an unbelievable moment.

Jerome Bettis

In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.

Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919)

The greatest and proudest moment moment of my life standing on the podium receiving the silver medal on behalf of myself and Australia.
