I Am Not Today, Nor Have I

It Is Time To Finish Off The U.s. Once And For All.

I Really Love The Dark Of The Night. It Helps Me To Concentrate.

It's The Fault Of The Chess Players Themselves. I Don't Know What They Used To Be, But Now They're Not The Most Gentlemanly Group. When It Was A Game Played By The Aristocrats It Had More Like You Know Dignity To It. When They Used To Have The Clubs, Like No Women Were Allowed And Everybody Went In Dressed In A Suit, A Tie, Like Gentlemen, You Know. Now, Kids Come Running In Their Sneakers. Even In The Best Chess Club-and They Got Women In There. It's A Social Place And People Are Making Noise, It's A Madhouse.

I Object To Being Called A Chess Genius Because I Consider Myself To Be An All Around Genius Who Just Happens To Play Chess, Which Is Rather Different. A Piece Of Garbage Like Kasparov Might Be Called A Chess Genius, But He's Like An Idiot Savant. Outside Of Chess He Knows Nothing.

You Know I'm Finished With The Old Chess Because It's All Just A Lot Of Book And Memorization You Know.
