Morphy was probably the greatest genius of them all

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.

I don't believe in hero worship.
Bobby Fischer

They asked me what year it was, what month it was, etc. I easily answered these stupid questions.
Bobby Fischer
Image
All I ever want to do is just play chess.
Bobby Fischer

The Russians have fixed world chess.
Bobby Fischer
Image
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 prepare myself well. I know what I can do before I go in. I'm always confident.
Bobby Fischer
Image
My opponents make good moves too. Sometimes I don't take these things into consideration
