More quotes by Garry Kasparov
It could truly be the case that Vladimir Putin has miscalculated in the long term with his adventure in Syria.
Garry Kasparov
All that now seems to stand between Nigel and the prospect of the world crown is the unfortunate fact that fate brought him into this world only two years after Kasparov.
Garry Kasparov
More and more people in my country recognise the dangers of having their governors appointed by Putin and having no influence in parliament because Parliament today is also following instructions from Kremlin and no longer represents its people.
Garry Kasparov
I don't have enough information, and enough courage, to come up with a definite version of events. And I think it is too dangerous for me to do so.
Garry Kasparov
Few things are as psychologically brutal as chess.
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
Moscow is simply unwilling to recognize the right of self-determination of nations.
Garry Kasparov
From Ukraine to Syria, he [Vladimir Putin] is behaving like the world's new general and celebrating victories, while the American president sits on the sidelines and Europe sleeps. The West's behavior toward Putin is political and moral capitulation.
Garry Kasparov
The highest Art of the Chess player lies in not allowing your Opponent to show you what he can do.
Garry Kasparov
Next to the intellectual stimulation of chess, the educational value is of great importance. Chess teaches logic, imagination, self-discipline, and determination.
Garry Kasparov
I believe more than ever, machines will put new challenges, and that means we'll have to be more creative and more human, because that's the way to make the difference.
Garry Kasparov
Putin can't afford to leave the office because he will be in real danger of being prosecuted for things he and his people did during their stay in power.
Garry Kasparov
There are many ways of showing your protest and discontent without the actions of Kremlin.
Garry Kasparov
A brilliant strategy is, certainly, a matter of intelligence, but intelligence without audaciousness is not enough.
Garry Kasparov
Do as little as necessary to appear to be doing something without actually committing to a cause or course of action.
Garry Kasparov
Ultimately, what separates a Winner from a Loser at the Grandmaster level is the Willingness to do the Unthinkable.
Garry Kasparov
We must be optimistic about the future because it's a self-fulfilling prophecy. If we are creative and ambitious, intelligent machines will liberate us and be as profound a boon to our prosperity as electricity. If we are fearful, and fail to press ahead, we could be overwhelmed by automation and inequality.
Garry Kasparov
I’ve seen - both in myself and my competitors - how satisfaction can lead to a lack of vigilance, then to mistakes and missed opportunities.
Garry Kasparov
Of course, if people do not want to do any work then it is better to start the game from a random position.
Garry Kasparov
At a certain point, the atmosphere in the West could change. But I don't see determined political will [for that] at the moment.
