More quotes by Magnus Carlsen
I'm not really into rap.
Magnus Carlsen
Right now I'm really happy with how things are going with my chess career, so I'm not thinking of doing anything else.
Magnus Carlsen
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.
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
I'm definitely the first no.1 in the world since Fischer, and probably at least since Kasparov, who probably has the most potential to dominate for the foreseeable future.
Magnus Carlsen
You have to choose the move that feels right sometimes that's what intuition is.
Magnus Carlsen
Some people think that if their opponent plays a beautiful game, it's OK to lose. I don't. You have to be merciless.
Magnus Carlsen
For me, the most important thing is to continue to play well and to be a positive figure and hopefully a role model for kids as well.
Magnus Carlsen
Unfortunately I'm still not a fashion expert.
Magnus Carlsen
Not winning a tournament is not an option for me, unless it's no longer theoretically possible - then of course winning becomes impossible. But up to that point, not winning is just not an option.
Magnus Carlsen
I don't really watch too many movies. I don't have the patience usually to watch one, one and a half or two hours in a row.
Magnus Carlsen
Chess only appeals to quite a small minority. It does not have the cachet of a mainstream popular sport.
Magnus Carlsen
My former coach, Simen Agdestein, used to be the best player in Norway.
Magnus Carlsen
I don't look at computers as opponents. For me it is much more interesting to beat humans.
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
I get more upset at losing at other things than chess. I always get upset when I lose at Monopoly.
Magnus Carlsen
It's nice to be financially secure. Apart from that, I really don't care too much about money.
Magnus Carlsen
I played like a child!
Magnus Carlsen
The Nanjing games are homework by Garry Kasparov and me, [...] Today's game was provided by Garry.
Magnus Carlsen
People ask what my goal is. I don't have a goal.
