TIME TROUBLE

Also named zeitnot (in German), which is a situation when the player has only a little time to reach time control.

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

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
Carlsen is paying far less attention to opening theory than his rivals, he is happy to go down paths that may offer no advantage yet have the benefit of dragging opponents out of their “openings book”. Once beyond the reaches of computer-aided openings, Carlsen starts to turn the screw. Judith Polgar

Some people think that if their opponent plays a beautiful game, it’s okay to lose. I don’t. You have to be merciless. Magnus Carlsen
.If we compare Carlsen with Anand or me or someone else, by ten criteria, he will be stronger in eight of them. Veselin Topalov
