People have been playing against me below their strength for fifteen years.
Bobby Fischer
Image
My opponents make good moves too. Sometimes I don't take these things into consideration
Bobby Fischer

Genius. It's a word. What does it really mean? If I win I'm a genius. If I don't, I'm not.
Bobby Fischer
Image
Americans really don't know much about chess. But I think when I beat Spassky, that Americans will take a greater interest in chess. Americans like winners.

It is time to finish off the U.S. once and for all.

I really love the dark of the night. It helps me to concentrate.

Computers are our only opponents that don't always have no excuse when losing against me.

Image
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
Image
There was open collusion between the Russian players. They agreed ahead of time to draw the games they played against each other. Every time they drew they gave each other half a point.

Image
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!

Chess is a matter of delicate judgement, knowing when to punch and how to duck.
Bobby Fischer
Image
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.

All that matters on the Chessboard is good moves.

I know people who have all the will in the world, but still can't play good Chess

First of all, we have to understand what communism is. I mean, to me, real communism, the Soviet communism, is basically a mask for Bolshevism, which is a mask for Judaism.
Bobby Fischer
Image
I usually never stay at the board after a game. Especially against Spassky. I made a dumb suggestion and he refuted it instantly! I know I'm going to have to play him some day and it was really stupid to look like such a jerk in front of him.

If you have seen one Alekhine game you've seen them all.

Chess and me, it's hard to take them apart. It's like my alter ego.
Bobby Fischer
Image
I can remember times coming home from a chess club at four in the morning when I was half asleep and half dead and forcing myself to pray an hour and study an hour. You know, I was half out of my mind-stoned almost.

There's no one alive I can't beat.
