You must take your opponent into a deep dark forest where 2+2=5, and the path leading out is only wide enough for one

In my games I have sometimes found a combination intuitively simply feeling that it must be there. Yet I was not able to translate my thought processes into normal human language.

If (Black) is going for victory, he is practically forced to allow his opponent to get some kind of well-known positional advantage.

As long as my opponent has not yet castled, on each move I seek a pretext for an offensive. Even when I realize that the king is not in danger.

Chess isn't football or hockey.

When I asked Fischer why he had not played a certain move in our game, he replied: 'Well, you laughed when I wrote it down!'

Fischer is the greatest genius to descend from the chess heavens.
