When you see a good move, look for a better one
Emanuel Lasker
It isn’t important what comes off the board, but what stays on!
Yasser Seirawan
Kramnik was the luckiest man in the history of chess. He never won a single cycle, he got all the matches that he played for political reasons.
Veselin Topalov 2014
According to my experiences, in key events, normally the games’ quality is not as high as other major events. Most brilliant games are not found in championships at present.
Garry Kasparov 2014
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.
