Chess players are madmen of a certain quality, the way the artist is supposed to be, and isn't, in general.

The only thing that is not art is inattention

Chess is a sport. A violent sport.

I was poking fun at myself most of all.

I don’t care about the word ‘art’ because it has been so discredited. So I want to get rid of it. There is an unnecessary adoration of ‘art’ today.

Three or four drops of height have nothing to do with savageness.

I wanted to kill art for myself.. ..a new thought for that object.
