More quotes by 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
For inspiration I look to those great players who consistently found original ways to shock their opponents. None did this better than the eighth world champion, Mikhail Tal. The Magician of Riga rose to become champion in 1960 at age twenty-three and became famous for his aggressive, volatile play.
Garry Kasparov
It's not enough to be talented. It's not enough to work hard and to study late into the night. You must also become intimately aware of the methods you use to reach your decisions.
Garry Kasparov
I've met enough KGB colonels in my life.
Garry Kasparov
We have to stop the propaganda, the shameful propaganda used by Kremlin to rehabilitate these old types.

Garry Kasparov
I have no idea how long Putin will last. The good news is, Putin doesn't know either. It will be sudden and it won't be peaceful. He has burned his bridges.
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
I would not draw definitive conclusions from that. If we look at South and North Korea, it is pretty hard to believe that we're dealing with the same people. Half of the people are forced to live in a concentration camp the other have created one of the most dynamic economies in the world.
Garry Kasparov
With this mistake I deprived myself of the possibility to make a contribution to the treasury of chess art.
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
Chess is one of the few arts where composition takes place simultaneously with performance
Garry Kasparov
Botvinnik tried to take the mystery out of Chess, always relating it to situations in ordinary life. He used to call chess a typical inexact problem similar to those which people are always having to solve in everyday life.
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
I feel that my chess strengths are still here, .. I believe I can still improve.
Garry Kasparov
Chess is not dominoes
Garry Kasparov
If you're already in a fight, you want the first blow to be the last and you had better be the one to throw it.
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.
