More quotes by Garry Kasparov
I would like to travel to my country again, to a country without a dictatorship, to a post-Putin Russia.
Garry Kasparov
Sometimes the hardest thing to do in a pressure situation is to allow the tension to persist. The temptation is to make a decision, any decision, even if it is an inferior choice.
Garry Kasparov
If you wish to succeed, you must brave the risk of failure.
Garry Kasparov
Botvinnik tried to take the mystery out of Chess, always relating it to situations in ordinary life. He used to call chess a typical inexact problem similar to those which people are always having to solve in everyday life.
Garry Kasparov
I tried to come up with a definition of this new paradigm in six articles entitled Russia after Putin. I would consider Russia's integration into Europe the most important element of this strategy.
Garry Kasparov
Caissa, the goddess of chess, had punished me for my conservative play, for betraying my nature.
Garry Kasparov
The highest Art of the Chess player lies in not allowing your Opponent to show you what he can do.
Garry Kasparov
By strictly observing Botvinnik's rule regarding the thorough analysis of one's own games, with the years I have come to realize that this provides the foundation for the continuous development of chess mastery.
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
Many people think they are too refined, or too rational, to entertain a real sense of wonder in themselves or in others. This is preposterous to me, since the natural world is full of endless wonders, both on Earth and especially in space, no matter how you think it was created.
Garry Kasparov
Throughout my chess career I sought out new challenges, looking for things no one had done before.
Garry Kasparov
Ultimately, what separates a Winner from a Loser at the Grandmaster level is the Willingness to do the Unthinkable.
Garry Kasparov
For me, chess is a language, and if it's not my native tongue, it is one I learned via the immersion method at a young age.
Garry Kasparov
There's the blazing Russian Caucasus, with an ongoing war all against all, which is not to be neglected.
Garry Kasparov
It could truly be the case that Vladimir Putin has miscalculated in the long term with his adventure in Syria.
Garry Kasparov
There is no doubt that [Vladimir] Putin is responsible for this crime, whether or not he gave the order to commit the murder [of Boris Nemtsov] himself. Putin created the conditions and atmosphere that have made this kind of thing possible.
Garry Kasparov
Vladimir Putin has this animalistic instinct of all dictators: He smells weakness. To quote Winston Churchill's definition of appeasement: An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.
Garry Kasparov
The situation in the [North Caucasus ] region can easily get out of control if the capital inflow is interrupted. It is apparent, even when leaving democratic institutions and values aside for a moment, that [Vladimir] Putin's regime has led the country down a blind alley. Our task is to usher in a shift of paradigms, a new foundation.
Garry Kasparov
Furthermore, a large portion of the assets of leading Russian figures is mixed, meaning that it is not quite clear how to counter this development.
Garry Kasparov
The downfall of democratic institutions in Russia doesn't add to the self-confidence of either [Vladimir] Putin or his friends, as the loss of power could lead to repercussions in Russian society.
