A lifetime in not enough to learn everything about chess.
I believe that true beauty of chess is more than enough to satisfy all possible demands.
Chess first of all teaches you to be objective.
During a chess tournament a master must envisage himself as a cross between an ascetic monk and a beast of prey.
Chess will always be the master of us all.
I do not play chess – I fight at chess. Therefore, I willingly combine the tactical with the strategic, the fantastic with the scientific, the combinative with the positional, and I aim to respond to the demands of each given position.
