Maybe I had something of Capablanca. Why should I prepare when I have ideas? Svetozar Gligoric

With the modern computer age, there are some new ideas, but the principles are basically the same… I try not to over-focus on preparation. Magnus Carlsen

If I’m thinking for more than 20 minutes about one move, it’s usually a waste. Sometimes you can come up with some amazing solution but most of the time you just end up looping: you consider a move, you reject it, then you’re desperate, you come back to the move, you don’t remember why you rejected it, you have to make a move so you make it – then your opponent replies and you remember why you rejected it. The longest wait I ever did between moves was one hour and five minutes – and the move was horrible. Magnus Carlsen

Who was the greatest chess player? If chess is an art, Alekhine. If chess is a science, Capablanca. If chess is a struggle, Lasker. Saviely Tartakower
