More quotes by Bobby Fischer
Karpov, Kasparov, Korchnoi have absolutely destroyed chess by their immoral, unethical, prearranged games. These guys are really the lowest dogs around, and if people knew the truth about them, they would be held in more contempt than Ben Johnson, the runner, and they're going to know the truth when I do this book!
Bobby Fischer
There's no one alive I can't beat.
Bobby Fischer
There are tough players and nice guys, and I'm a tough player
Bobby Fischer
They asked me what year it was, what month it was, etc. I easily answered these stupid questions.
Bobby Fischer

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
Nothing eases suffering like human touch.
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
The old chess is too limited. Imagine playing cards, black jack for example, and every time the dealer has the same starting hand you have the same starting hand. What's the point?
Bobby Fischer
I was never invited to the White House.
Bobby Fischer
I add status to any tournament I attend.
Bobby Fischer
It is time to finish off the U.S. once and for all.
Bobby Fischer
I don't keep any close friends. I don't keep any secrets. I don't need friends. I just tell everybody everything, that's all.
Bobby Fischer
