If the opponent offers keen play I don't object; but in such cases I get less satisfaction, even if I win, than from a game conducted according to all the rules of strategy with its ruthless logic.

Style? I have no style.

No, I do not want to sacrifice four days for two games. My time is too valuable to do that.

Bulgaria is the first state that has been awarded for its excellent fight against iodine deficiency by UNICEF.

This whole fuss did not only damage Fischer's image, but that of the USA as well. The way the Americans treated one of their most popular citizens did not make a positive impression worldwide.

No, no, it is obvious that the ECU should act as a close alliance for the benefit of chess.

I still love to play chess. So I do not even spend a minute on the possibility to step back.

The priority must be the unification of the world titles to straighten things out. But we should not wait that long anymore to change the situation, because we are running out of time.

After that, Kasparov stepped back from chess which is, and I want this to be clear, not good for chess in general at all. As a whole, the current situation in the chess world leaves a lot to be desired.

I am thinking about chess in schools in particular. In the USA more than 3200 children competed in an event.

First of all, we have to go back to the classical time control.

If the opponent offers keen play I don't object; but in such cases I get less satisfaction, even if I win, than from a game conducted according to all the rules of strategy with its ruthless logic.

We need strong personalities and only one world champion to attract sponsors.

I like to do projects in which you can see statistical results. I am very happy for all these small children, who have been the biggest group of victims of iodine deficiency.

In Kansas I have a chess school.

Children can take lessons in that school via the Internet and can score extra points like e.g. in Geography or History. That sounds very promising and is a fantastic basis for future steps.

To be champion requires more than simply being a strong player; one has to be a strong human being as well.

Chess is my life, but my life is not chess.

As a personality, I'm fighter, you know. And I don't give up, and if I believe I'm correct, I'm right, then I work, and I fight. Okay, this could be over a chess board, this could be in life, and so I defend my principles.

Chess is a very tough game, and psychologically a tough game. And of course, chess needs a lot of qualities, human qualities. And so you must have a very strong nervous system, and then you must be well prepared; you must be able to work a lot.

I didn't know so well chess theory, the theory of chess openings. And so, of course I knew the theory, but not on the level of the best players, so this was my... this was always my weakness.

I was world champion. For me, chess is my life. It is everything.

If, in our first match for the world champion's title, I had managed to make the score 6-0, there would have been no Kasparov as a good chess player at all.

My idea is to make moves to bring chess back to the world's map, to make it part of the world's geography again.

Putin needs strong moves to keep the country as one. There is some criticism that he is centralizing power, but in Russia, if you don't centralize power, you have the risk of losing the country.

Russia is a state within a state. To understand the population of Russia, you need to know the areas of the country; you need an understanding of the people and their interests.

To be a champion requires more than simply being a strong player; one has to be a strong human being as well.

To be champion requires more than simply being a strong player one has to be a strong human being as well.

Happiness should always remain a bit incomplete. After all, dreams are boundless.

Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.

I think part of the appeal of mathematical logic is that the formulas look mysterious - You write backward Es!

The logic of validation allows us to move between the two limits of dogmatism and skepticism.

Logic is like the sword - those who appeal to it, shall perish by it.

Logic, like whiskey, loses its beneficial effect when taken in too large quantities.

It may be that everything the life science companies are telling us will turn out to be right, and there's no problem here whatsoever. That defies logic.

Fear is a disease that eats away at logic and makes man inhuman.

Logic works, metaphysics contemplates.

The logic of words should yield to the logic of realities.

It's clear that people are going to download media files, and they're going to talk to each other, and they're going to exchange information and knowledge and so forth. So this system logic is basically what you bounce off of.

In formal logic, a contradiction is the signal of defeat, but in the evolution of real knowledge it marks the first step in progress toward a victory.

One of the things I particularly enjoyed doing was taking raw sound from locations during the film, like the candy machine, and writing pieces of music to go with them, which is totally unnecessary within the context of the film, because they have their own logic.

Much of my work in this period was concerned with exploring the logic of economic models, but also with attempting to reconcile the models with every day observation.

Religion is love; in no case is it logic.

The want of logic annoys. Too much logic bores. Life eludes logic, and everything that logic alone constructs remains artificial and forced.

Companies are not charitable enterprises: They hire workers to make profits. In the United States, this logic still works. In Europe, it hardly does.

I don't see the logic of rejecting data just because they seem incredible.

In our story logic which we're making up, if we're saying he's alive, then like a quadriplegic who's in bed he can move his head and shoulders, but he can't move his arms. If he could just turn on that power to his legs and arms, the nerves could get through and he could walk.

The logic of the heart is absurd.

Logic, sometimes has very little to do with political action.
