Its just you and your opponent at the board and you're trying to prove something

Morphy was probably the greatest genius of them all

I add status to any tournament I attend.

My sister bought me a set at a candy store and taught me the moves.

I know people who have all the will in the world, but still can't play good Chess

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

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.
