Golden Moments

Los Angeles, 12 August 1984

Carlos LOPES raises the Portuguese flag after winning the marathon.
Like the Portuguese Poet Manuel Alegre wrote, this man is not a hero only because of this medal, this marathon. He's a hero because he reaches further and further inside himself.
We thank you a lot for the pride we felt on that golden day.
And everyday!

"He's a hero because he reaches further and further inside himself." I liked specially this sentence. It remembers me that we are all heroes because everyday we fight to get someting. Everyday...
