Master of Trinity:
For the past year, you've concentrated wholly on developing your own technique in the headlong pursuit, may I suggest, of individual glory. Not a policy very conducive to the fostering of esprit de corps. Harold M. Abrahams:
I am a Cambridge man, first and last. I am an Englishman, first and last. What I have achieved, what I intend to achieve, is for my family, my university, and my country. And I bitterly resent your suggesting otherwise. Master of Caius:
Your aim is to win At all costs, is it not? Harold M. Abrahams:
At all costs, no. But I do aim to win within the rules
