Games give you a chance to excel, and if you're playing in good company you don't even mind if you lose because you had the enjoyment of the company during the course of the game.

When you master role-playing [gaming], you become immersed in an activity that is peerless among leisure-time pursuits.

The secret we should never let the gamemasters know is that they don't need any rules.

The worthy GM never purposely kills players' PCs, He presents opportunities for the rash and unthinking players to do that all on their own.

I'm just a risk taker. I have gut instincts.

Some of the roots of role-playing games (RPGs) are grounded in clinical and academic role assumption and role-playing exercises.

There is no winning or losing, but rather the value is in the experience of imagining yourself as a character in whatever genre you’re involved in, whether it’s a fantasy game, the Wild West, secret agents or whatever else. You get to sort of vicariously experience those things.
