I don't like to dwell on the past. I'm interested in Fischerandom now, I am working on a new clock, I'm trying to make chess a more exciting game today. I am not interested in sitting in my rocking chair thinking what I did 10, 20 or 30 years ago.

I don't care! I don't have to show anybody my games just because they're a big shot!

Capablanca was among the greatest of chess players, but not because of his endgame. His trick was to keep his openings simple, and then play with such brilliance in the middlegame that the game was decided - even though his ooponent didn't always know it - before they arrived at the ending.

I prepare myself well. I know what I can do before I go in. I'm always confident.

Is it against the law to kill a reporter?

I don't remember one thing I learned in school.

I play honestly and I play to win. If I lose, I take my medicine.
