More quotes by Bobby Fischer
All my games are real
Bobby Fischer
The turning point in my career came with the realization that Black should play to win instead of just steering for equality.
Bobby Fischer
I object to being called a chess genius because I consider myself to be an all around genius who just happens to play chess, which is rather different. A piece of garbage like Kasparov might be called a chess genius, but he's like an idiot savant. Outside of chess he knows nothing.
Bobby Fischer
I add status to any tournament I attend.
Bobby Fischer
I am boring. I am boring!
Bobby Fischer
If I win a tournament, I win it by myself. I do the playing. Nobody helps me
Bobby Fischer
Ultimately the white man should leave the United States and the black people should go back to Africa.
Bobby Fischer
FIDE has decided against my participation in the 1975 World Chess Champion title.
Bobby Fischer
I prepare myself well. I know what I can do before I go in. I'm always confident.
Bobby Fischer
When I was eleven, I just got good.
Bobby Fischer
I'd like to travel around, be an international playboy. They have all that money they could really do it right. Look at (Errol) Flynn.
Bobby Fischer
I don't remember one thing I learned in school.
Bobby Fischer
I was going to do a book about the first prearranged Karpov-Kasparov match, '84-'85. But the God-damn Jews have stolen my entire file on that.
Bobby Fischer
The Russians have held my title for ten years and they're going to be in for it when I win the Championship. They're going to have to wait and play under my conditions.
Bobby Fischer
Our mind is all we've got. Not that it won't lead us astray sometimes, but we still have to analyze things out within ourselves.
Bobby Fischer
I hope the Icelandic government grants me political asylum.
Bobby Fischer
As Olafsson showed me, White can win... It's hard to believe. I stayed up all night analysing, finally convicing myself, and, incidentally, learning a lot about Rook and Pawn endings in the process.
Bobby Fischer
I was never invited to the White House.
Bobby Fischer
I don't believe in hero worship.
Bobby Fischer
Now my only income is a few royalty cheques from my books.
