Undoubtedly, people love motivational quotes, they give us a chance to reflect on how or why we do things and they’re words of wisdom, an insight in to an unknown world of success, fear or fierce competition.
What constitutes good character in sport? Is it possible to get ‘ethical’ from being ‘athletic’? Are athletes really special people (heroes and role models) or just people with special skills?
