Some remarks of the champion Klaas Krom:

- "A champion has to kill all his good birds. He must only keep the very good."

- "A fancier who administers too much medicine ruins his birds forever."

- "To be the best of all you must never be satisfied."

- "If you have only one hour per day to spare for your pigeons you can forget becoming a Super-champion.

- "For a race, only pigeons may be entered which are so healthy, so motivated that they are able to win a first prize. Others       should be left at home.

- "Motivation, both of the bird and the fancier, is the magic word in modern pigeon racing."

Ad. Schaerlaeckens

一些冠军鸽友 Klaas Krom 的名言：
-一个冠军鸽友必须杀掉他所有的好鸽子，他必须只保留非常好的鸽子。
-用太多药物管理他的鸽子的鸽友，将会永远毁掉鸽子。
-如果想成为最好的就永远不要满足于现状！
-如果每天只有一个小时的时间和你的鸽子在一起，你可以不要幻想自己会成为超级冠军。
-对于一场比赛，只有很健康的赛鸽选手才有资格参加，很活跃的选手才有机会赢得第一名奖赏。
-动机，鸽子和鸽友两者在现代赛鸽运动中是不可思议的词语。
