More quotes by Garry Kasparov
Chess is one of the few arts where composition takes place simultaneously with performance
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
Inevitably the machines must win, but there is still a long way to go before a human on his or her best day is unable to defeat the best computer.
Garry Kasparov
Russia's inclination toward authoritarianism undoubtedly strengthened the leaders in Azerbaijan, Armenia, and Kazakhstan, as they are afraid of normal democratic procedures.
Garry Kasparov
Weaknesses of character are normally shown in a game of chess.
Garry Kasparov
Nervous energy is the ammunition we take into any mental battle. If you don't have enough of it, your concentration will fade. If you have a surplus, the results will explode.
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
Donald Trump is a catalyst. People care now in a way they didn't. The American institutions were rusting now they are being revitalised. Trump is a lightning rod. They are getting engaged and the American liberal media that spent too much time on PC issues can focus on Vladimir Putin and Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
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by Putin and having no influence in parliament because Parliament today is also following instructions from Kremlin and no longer represents its people.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
The ability to work hard for days on end without losing focus is a talent. The ability to keep absorbing new information after many hours of study is a talent.
Garry Kasparov
I think Russian people are learning that democracy is not an alien thing it's not a western invention.
Garry Kasparov
Throughout my chess career I sought out new challenges, looking for things no one had done before.
Garry Kasparov
In the event that we don't want to lose the Far East and Siberia, we need a united Europe.
Garry Kasparov
It's quite difficult for me to imagine my life without chess.
Garry Kasparov
The only successor to President Putin is President Putin himself and we could of course dream about President Putin stepping down voluntarily and picking out successor which would be probably as bad as him.
Garry Kasparov
If you make a decision to fight for future of your own country you have to consider all the consequences.
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
A brilliant strategy is, certainly, a matter of intelligence, but intelligence without audaciousness is not enough.
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.
Garry Kasparov
The real political life in Russia unfortunately is not in the parliament but on the streets and in the media.
