Tigran Petrosian
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
” Kasparov was like Samson, but his hair has been shorn (2000).”
Nathan Divinsky

Alexander Kotov
