Of chess it has been said that life is not long enough for it, but that is the fault of life, not chess.
Irving Chernev
Chess needs Kasparov, he’s very important for chess, he’s a very important figure who can open a lot of doors for chess. And for Kirsan, of course, it was a joke.

If the 12th game (from the match Carlsen-Karjakin)… were a restaurant dish, I would send it back to the chef.

As chess players, Kasparov and Karpov have exhausted themselves, the people began to forget them and they are trying to attract attention with their inadequate statements.
Kirsan Ilyumzhinov 2010
I have often written that Karpov is like an iceberg. Well, Kasparov was the Titanic.
