More quotes by Bobby Fischer
Your body has to be in top condition. Your Chess deteriorates as your body does. You can't separate body from mind
Bobby Fischer
Tactics flow from a superior position
Bobby Fischer
My main interest right now is to expose the Jews. This is a lot bigger than me. They're not just persecuting me. This is not just my struggle, I'm not just doing this for myself... This is life and death for the world. These God-damn Jews have to be stopped. They're a menace to the whole world.
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
If I win a tournament, I win it by myself. I do the playing. Nobody helps me
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
To get squares you have to give up squares.
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 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 don't remember one thing I learned in school.
Bobby Fischer
The white people should go back to Europe, and the country should be returned to the American Indians. This is the future I would like to see for the so-called United States.
Bobby Fischer
Americans like a winner. If you lose, you're nothing. I'm going to win, though. It's good for the match that Spassky has a plus score against me. We've met five times. He's won three times and we've drawn twice. But I'm a stronger player and a long match favors me.
Bobby Fischer
All that matters on the Chessboard is good moves.
Bobby Fischer
I prepare myself well. I know what I can do before I go in. I'm always confident.
Bobby Fischer
Nobody has single-handedly done more for the US image than me...
Bobby Fischer
Don't even mention losing to me. I can't stand to think of it
Bobby Fischer
I hope the Icelandic government grants me political asylum.
Bobby Fischer
There are tough players and nice guys, and I'm a tough player
Bobby Fischer
All I ever want to do is just play chess.
Bobby Fischer
They're all weak, all women. They're stupid compared to men. They shouldn't play chess, you know. They're like beginners. They lose every single game against a man. There isn't a woman player in the world I can't give knight-odds to and still beat.
Bobby Fischer
