There's No One Alive I Can't Beat.

Well, You Know, In America Everybody Is Interested In Making The Dollar Fast. In Yugoslavia No Matter How Much You Hustle You're Not Going To Get Rich, So You Might As Well Play Chess.

The White People Should Go Back To Europe, And The Country Should Be Returned To The American Indians. This Is The Future I Would Like To See For The So-called United States.

But The Thing That Was Great About Capablanca Was That He Really Spoke His Mind, He Said What He Believed Was True, He Said What He Felt. He [capablanca] Wanted To Change The Rules [of Chess] Already, Back In The Twenties, Because He Said Chess Was Getting Played Out. He Was Right. Now Chess Is Completely Dead. It Is All Just Memorisation And Prearrangement. It's A Terrible Game Now. Very Uncreative.

Too Many Times, People Don't Try Their Best. They Don't Have The Keen Spirit; The Winning Spirit. And Once You Make It You've Got To Guard Your Reputation - Every Day Go In Like An Unknown To Prove Yourself. That's Why I Don't Clown Around. I Don't Believe In Wasting Time. My Goal Is To Win The World Chess Championship; To Beat The Russians. I Take This Very Seriously.

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