To play for a draw (at any rate with White) is to some degree a crime against chess.

Quiet moves often make a stronger impression than a wild combination with heavy sacrifices.

You can't avoid mistakes and bad luck.

I can take care of myself! But the "external barriers", my opponents, do indeed concern me.

I believe most definitely that one must not only grapple with the problems on the board, one must also make every effort to combat the thoughts and will of the opponent.
