More quotes by Bobby Fischer
Don't even mention losing to me. I can't stand to think of it
Bobby Fischer
Normally we'd draw the curtain here, but I just wanted to see what he'd play next.
Bobby Fischer
I grew up with the concept of freedom of speech. So I'm too old, it's too late for me to adjust to the new world, the new world order.
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
Morphy was probably the greatest genius of them all
Bobby Fischer
Alekhine developed as a player much more slowly than most. In his twenties, he was an atrocious chessplayer, and didn't mature until he was well into his thirties.
Bobby Fischer
I was in Japan a couple of months ago, I saw a preview for the movie Pearl Harbor. And they showed the Japanese airplanes coming in to bomb Pearl Harbor, and I applauded. Nobody else in the theater applauded.
Bobby Fischer

All my games are real
Bobby Fischer
Yeah, there are too many Jews in chess. They seem to have taken away the class of the game. They don't seem to dress so nicely, you know. That's what I don't like.
Bobby Fischer
I am the best player in the world, and I am here to prove it.
Bobby Fischer
I don't believe in psychology.
Bobby Fischer
There's no one alive I can't beat.
Bobby Fischer
I don't believe in psychology. I believe in good moves
Bobby Fischer
I was never invited to the White House.
Bobby Fischer
Well, I'm not sure I know what you mean by a prima donna, but if something doesn't interest me or if someone bores me, or if I think they're a phony, I just don't bother with them, that's all.
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 don't like American girls. They're very conceited, you know. In Europe they're more pleasant.
