Personal Quotes
I like the moment when I break a man’s ego.
All that matters on the chessboard is good moves.
I felt that chess… is a science in the form of a game… I consider myself a scientist. I wanted to be treated like a scientist.
When I won the world championship, in 1972, the United States had an image of, you know, a football country, a baseball country, but nobody thought of it as an intellectual country.
I was never invited to the White House.
