Looks like I’m going to raise the average age of the field and lower the average rating!
Garry Kasparov 2017
Botvinnik, Korchnoi and Kasparov had to hate the opponent to play successfully. I belong to a different type of chess players. I’m like Keres, Spassky and Portisch. On the board we fight, but in life we get along great.
Anatoly Karpov 2015
To Put It Mildly, I Have Not a Bit of Respect For Topalov
Vladimir Kramnik 2015
Politics is a team game, here it is necessary to compromise, to take into account the views of other people. As for Garry, he is quite a contentious, totalitarian person. But in general, I’m sorry that Kasparov switched to a role that does not match the scale of his personality.
Vladimir Kramnik 2015
Chess politic is not my dream, but I will be happy when we start to change things and organize a better chess life in the world.
