More quotes by 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
Right, left, Greens, Baathists, whatever: it comes down to grabbing and holding power and using ideology - or religion, race - as a justification.
Garry Kasparov
A grandmaster needs to retain thousands of games in his head, for games are to him what the words of their mother tongue are to ordinary people, or notes or scores to musicians.
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
In my opinion, this vicious circle will be broken by history itself. Because sticking to the current form of governance, which is to say guaranteeing the survival of [Vladimir] Putin's regime, will necessarily lead to the demise of Russia within its present borders.
Garry Kasparov
The regime is in trouble economically and can no longer offer anything to its citizens. That's why [Vladimir] Putin has to pursue an aggressive foreign policy, so he can serve his people the fairy tale of Russian pride and regaining its strength as a major power.

...comparing the capacity of computers to the capacity of the human brain, I've often wondered, where does our success come from? The answer is synthesis, the ability to combine creativity and calculation, art and science, into whole that is much greater than the sum of its parts.
Garry Kasparov
We have to stop the propaganda, the shameful propaganda used by Kremlin to rehabilitate these old types.
Garry Kasparov
In my opinion, using different kinds of epithets and adjectives in connection with the word democracy is a sign of mere hypocrisy, to put it mildly. Either there's democracy, or there isn't.
Garry Kasparov
It was not about losing my mental power it's about not feeling good about my contribution to the game.
Garry Kasparov
The loss of my childhood was the price for becoming the youngest world champion in history. When you have to fight every day from a young age, your soul can be contaminated. I lost my childhood. I never really had it. Today I have to be careful not to become cruel, because I became a soldier too early.
Garry Kasparov
I think Russians today have a distorted picture of capitalism, liberal democracy and market economy.
Garry Kasparov
By this measure (on the gap between Fischer & his contemporaries), I consider him the greatest world champion
Garry Kasparov
It was an impressive achievement, of course, and a human achievement by the members of the IBM team, but Deep Blue was only intelligent the way your programmable alarm clock is intelligent. Not that losing to a $10 million alarm clock made me feel any better.
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
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
Alexei Navalny, the opposition politician who has led anti-corruption protests, had a blog about a credit line to a company owned by Vladimir Putin's son-in-law, $1.75 billion from Russian state funds this is one transaction. Putin controls more money directly and indirectly than any individual in human history.
Garry Kasparov
I have some security that could protect me against provocations but of course there are more terrible actions that could not be stopped by any security.
Garry Kasparov
Ultimately, what separates a Winner from a Loser at the Grandmaster level is the Willingness to do the Unthinkable.
Garry Kasparov
Vladimir Putin mainly has friends in Europe among the extreme right, such as Marine Le Pen's Front National in France.
