I've never been much of a computer guy at least in terms of playing with computers. Actually until I was about 11 I didn't use a computer for preparing for games at all. Now, obviously, the computer is an important tool for me preparing for my games. I analyze when I'm on the computer, either my games or my opponents. But mostly my own.

I've never really had a favorite player, past or present.

Magnus Carlsen
I learnt an enormous amount, but there came a point where I found there was too much stress. It was no fun any more. Outside of the chessboard I avoid conflict, so I thought this wasn't worth it.
Magnus Carlsen
It's nice to be financially secure. Apart from that, I really don't care too much about money.
Magnus Carlsen
People ask what my goal is. I don't have a goal.
Magnus Carlsen
There are so many games that I've seen that I've learned from. I never - that's also part of the same - never single out a particular player or a particular game.
Magnus Carlsen
Kids love games and chess is a game where you have to sit down and concentrate and it just helps in every way.
Magnus Carlsen
My former coach, Simen Agdestein, used to be the best player in Norway.
Magnus Carlsen
In my experience, when I went to school, and especially in after-school, and during breaks, a lot of people wanted to sit down and play chess up till a certain age when it was not supposed to be cool anymore and people wanted to do other things.
Magnus Carlsen
I'm not really into rap.
