Some people think that if their opponent plays a beautiful game, it's OK to lose. I don't. You have to be merciless.

I really enjoy the experience of playing humans. The psychological game is so much more important.

My former coach, Simen Agdestein, used to be the best player in Norway.

If you want to get to the top, there's always the risk that it will isolate you from other people.

You have to choose the move that feels right sometimes; that's what intuition is.

When you have fun then you're more interested in learning.

I played like a child!
