More quotes by Garry Kasparov
Losing can persuade you to change what doesn't need to be changed, and winning can convince you everything is fine even if you are on the brink of disaster.
Garry Kasparov
Many so-called pragmatists want nothing to do with space exploration or other kinds of ambitious endeavours that don't have a clear payoff. This mentality is hugely damaging to our success as a civilization. Our desire to understand the universe is kindled by curiosity and wonder, and this has fuelled countless scientific breakthroughs.
Garry Kasparov
Rosneft, for instance, was mainly built upon capital stolen from [jailed oligarch Mikhail] Khodorkovsky's company, but the IPO was successful with many Western corporations investing in it. This means that it is extremely difficult to detect these assets in their pure form.
Garry Kasparov
You know, if I'm in a bad mood, I always look at the chessboard, just to find something that can cheer me up.
Garry Kasparov
The biggest problem I see among people who want to excel in chess – and in business and in life in general – is not trusting their instincts enough.
Garry Kasparov
It was not about losing my mental power it's about not feeling good about my contribution to the game.
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
Do as little as necessary to appear to be doing something without actually committing to a cause or course of action.
Garry Kasparov
We can't attribute a long history of democratic traditions to Japan, either, but today Japan boasts a fully-fledged democracy in which governments change according to democratic procedures. It's no coincidence that the Taiwanese, Japanese, and South Korean economies are among the most innovative in Asia.
Garry Kasparov
Moscow is simply unwilling to recognize the right of self-determination of nations.
Garry Kasparov
[Vladimir] Putin is more of a poker player. In poker, unlike chess, you can effectively compensate for a very weak hand by bluffing. There are fixed rules in chess, and no one knows how the game will end. Things are currently the other way around in Putin's realm. But it won't stay that way forever.
Garry Kasparov
Few things are as psychologically brutal as chess.
Garry Kasparov
Winning is not a secret that belongs to a very few, winning is something that we can learn by studying ourselves, studying the environment and making ourselves ready for any challenge that is in front of us.
Garry Kasparov
Nowadays, a 13-year-old would probably know more than Bobby Fischer knew when he retired. They analyse all the moves and prepare themselves on their computers. But that doesn’t mean they are special.
Garry Kasparov
Ultimately, what separates a Winner from a Loser at the Grandmaster level is the Willingness to do the Unthinkable.
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
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
One does not succeed by sticking to convention.
Garry Kasparov
All women are inferior to men.
Garry Kasparov
I dropped the King's Indian in 1997 after one too many bad experiences against Kramnik.
