Bobby Fischer
Image
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.

Chess and me, it's hard to take them apart. It's like my alter ego.

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
Image

To get squares you have to give up squares.
Bobby Fischer
Image
She and I just don't see eye to eye together. She's a square. She keeps telling me that I'm too interested in chess, that I should get friends outside of chess, you can't make a living from chess, that I should finish high school and all that nonsense. She keeps in my hair and I don't like people in my hair, you know, so I had to get rid of her.
Bobby Fischer

It is time to finish off the U.S. once and for all.
Bobby Fischer
Image
My opponents make good moves too. Sometimes I don't take these things into consideration
Bobby Fischer
Image
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.

I don't listen to weakies.
