“Chess is the struggle against the error.”
Johannes Zukertort
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.
Anatoly Karpov 2010
What’s been bothering me is not that I haven’t won tournaments, but that I haven’t played very well.
Magnus Carlsen 2017
The competition in the men’s tournament has grown massively over the past 20 years. Chess is becoming more and more popular, and there are no weak teams in the tournament any longer.
Andrey Filatov
Chess should not become an obsession. Otherwise there’s a danger that you will slide off into a parallel world, that you lose your sense of reality, get lost in the infinite cosmos of the game. You become crazy.
Magnus Carlsen 2010
