All that matters on the Chessboard is good moves.

Karpov, Kasparov, Korchnoi have absolutely destroyed chess by their immoral, unethical, prearranged games. These guys are really the lowest dogs around, and if people knew the truth about them, they would be held in more contempt than Ben Johnson, the runner, and they're going to know the truth when I do this book!

As Olafsson showed me, White can win... It's hard to believe. I stayed up all night analysing, finally convicing myself, and, incidentally, learning a lot about Rook and Pawn endings in the process.

I don't believe in psychology. I believe in good moves

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

My opponents make good moves too. Sometimes I don't take these things into consideration

I could give any woman in the world a piece and a move; to Gaprindashvili even, a knight.
