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

I am not today, nor have I ever been a Jew, and as a matter of fact, I am uncircumcised.

It's the fault of the chess players themselves. I don't know what they used to be, but now they're not the most gentlemanly group. When it was a game played by the aristocrats it had more like you know dignity to it. When they used to have the clubs, like no women were allowed and everybody went in dressed in a suit, a tie, like gentlemen, you know. Now, kids come running in their sneakers. Even in the best chess club-and they got women in there. It's a social place and people are making noise, it's a madhouse.

I am boring. I am boring!

Chess is like war on a board

If you have seen one Alekhine game you've seen them all.

Psychologically, you have to have confidence in yourself and this confidence should be based on fact.
