Garry Kasparov
I started playing chess when I was five years old. I learned the moves from my mother, then worked with my father - and later trainers. My style became very technical. I sacrificed a lot of things. I was always hunting for the king, for the mate. I'd forget about my other pieces.

If you wish to succeed, you must brave the risk of failure.
Garry Kasparov
Most likely, the system of mutual relations that has evolved in Eastern Europe and Asia corresponds to another level of governance.
Garry Kasparov

Garry Kasparov
There can be no finer example of the inspiring powers of competition to shatter the status quo than Hungary's Judit Polgar.
Garry Kasparov
If you make a decision to fight for future of your own country you have to consider all the consequences.
Garry Kasparov
Energy is connected to physical fitness. One of the reasons I stayed at the top so long is that I was tremendously fit. At 36, I was fitter than most opponents ten years younger.
Garry Kasparov
