The King is a fighting piece. Use it!

Unfortunately, many regard the critic as an enemy, instead of seeing him as a guide to the truth.

The king pawn and the queen pawn are the only ones to be moved in the early part of the game.

Chess is intellectual gymnastics.

I am fully and entirely concentrated on the board. I never even consider my opponent's personality. So far as I am concerned, my opponent might as well be an abstraction or an automaton.

I would rather die in America than live in England. I would rather lose a match in America than win one in England. I have come to the conclusion that I neither mean to die soon or to lose the match!

I play my king all over the board. I make him fight!
