More quotes by Bobby Fischer

Image
My opponents make good moves too. Sometimes I don't take these things into consideration
Bobby Fischer
Image
Your body has to be in top condition. Your Chess deteriorates as your body does. You can't separate body from mind
Bobby Fischer
Image
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.

Image
Blitz chess kills your ideas.
Bobby Fischer
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
The Russians have held my title for ten years and they're going to be in for it when I win the Championship. They're going to have to wait and play under my conditions.

The United States is evil. It has to be brought down, it has to be eliminated from the world scene. They are the ones who have made the world the hell that it is.
Bobby Fischer

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.

Normally we'd draw the curtain here, but I just wanted to see what he'd play next.
Bobby Fischer
Image
They asked me what year it was, what month it was, etc. I easily answered these stupid questions.

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.

All I ever want to do is just play chess.

Chess demands total concentration

I don't listen to weakies.

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.

I am the best player in the world, and I am here to prove it.
