The Fact That A Knight

I Didn't Picture Myself As Even A Grandmaster, To Say Nothing Of Aspiring To The Chess Crown. This Was Not Because I Was Timid - I Wasn't - But Because I Simply Lived In One World, And The Grandmasters Existed In A Completely Different One.

Chess Is A Very Tough Game, And Psychologically A Tough Game. And Of Course Chess Needs A Lot Of Qualities, Human Qualities. And So You Must Have Very Strong Nervous System And Then You Must Be Well Prepared, You Must Be Able To Work A Lot.

Happiness Should Always Remain A Bit Incomplete. After All, Dreams Are Boundless.
