More quotes by Garry Kasparov
A grandmaster must memorize thousands of chess duels in his head, as these are for him what words of the mother tongue are to the ordinary people and what notes are to a musician.
Garry Kasparov
It could truly be the case that Vladimir Putin has miscalculated in the long term with his adventure in Syria.
Garry Kasparov
We have a saying that a stranger's soul is like a black box. Which is why I would not want to analyze [Vladimir] Putin's psychological motivations.
Garry Kasparov
There's the blazing Russian Caucasus, with an ongoing war all against all, which is not to be neglected.
Garry Kasparov
I've met enough KGB colonels in my life.
Garry Kasparov
Ultimately, what separates a Winner from a Loser at the Grandmaster level is the Willingness to do the Unthinkable.
Garry Kasparov
Ratings are king and the money keeps flowing, and partisanship is so strong today that people rely on a few sources absolutely instead of thinking critically.

Garry Kasparov
Caissa, the goddess of chess, had punished me for my conservative play, for betraying my nature.

Garry Kasparov
I wouldn't overestimate the importance of my popularity in the country and abroad but at the end of the day it's not as important because I believe that my presence here could make some difference and it could encourage people.
Garry Kasparov

Garry Kasparov
Chess strength in general and chess strength in a specific match are by no means one and the same thing.
Garry Kasparov
Tarrasch's 'dogmas' are not eternal truisms, but merely instructional material presented in an accessible and witty form, those necessary rudiments from which one can begin to grasp the secrets of chess.
Garry Kasparov
Somehow, AI is playing an important role of breaking up the ice of complacency. We have a comfortable life, we just don't want to take risks. AI is threatening too many comfortable jobs to make people think about taking risks again.
Garry Kasparov
You're always going to have dangerous, disaffected people in any society, and some will be violent. Increasing prosperity and reducing inequality won't solve that completely. But having big, positive dreams and a society that makes it possible to achieve those dreams is what we must strive for.
Garry Kasparov
In the event that we don't want to lose the Far East and Siberia, we need a united Europe.
Garry Kasparov
Chess is not dominoes
Garry Kasparov
By this measure (on the gap between Fischer & his contemporaries), I consider him the greatest world champion
Garry Kasparov
By the time a player becomes a Grandmaster, almost all of his training time is dedicated to work on this first phase. The opening is the only phase that holds out the potential for true creativity and doing something entirely new.
