Chess Is Not Only Knowledge And Logic

Capablanca Was Snatched Too Early From The Chess World. With His Death We Have Lost A Great Chess Genius, The Like Of Whom We Will Never See Again.

During A Chess Competition A Chessmaster Should Be A Combination Of A Beast Of Prey And A Monk

The Infallible Criterion By Which To Distinguish The True From The Would-be Strategist Is The Degree Of Originality Of His Conceptions. It Makes Little Difference Whether This Originality Is Carried To Excess, As Was The Case With Steinitz And Nimzowitsch.

In My Opinion, A Master Is Morally Obliged To Seize Every Sort Of Opportunity And To Try To Solve The Problems Of The Position Without Fear Of Some Simplifications.

The Purpose Of Human Life And The Sense Of Happiness Is To Give The Maximum What The Man Is Able To Give.
