All my games are real

I was in Japan a couple of months ago, I saw a preview for the movie Pearl Harbor. And they showed the Japanese airplanes coming in to bomb Pearl Harbor, and I applauded. Nobody else in the theater applauded.

Chess and me, it's hard to take them apart. It's like my alter ego.

Normally we'd draw the curtain here, but I just wanted to see what he'd play next.

I don't listen to weakies.
Bobby Fischer

That's what Chess is all about. One day you give your opponent a lesson, the next day he gives you one

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.

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

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
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.
Bobby Fischer

Ultimately the white man should leave the United States and the black people should go back to Africa.
Bobby Fischer
Image
The turning point in my career came with the realization that Black should play to win instead of just steering for equality.

When I won the World Championship in '72, the United States had an image of, you know, a football country, baseball country, but nobody thought of it as an intellectual country.

Now my only income is a few royalty cheques from my books.

I don't believe in psychology. I believe in good moves
Bobby Fischer

I'm not afraid of Spassky. The world knows I'm the best. You don't need a match to prove it.
Bobby Fischer
Image
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.

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!
