Chess quotations

Here are some quotes on Chess. I had collected these from different sources and jotted down many years ago. I am sure you too may like these gems.

1. “Most chess players hate to lose, considering a loss as a disgrace. This is a wrong attitude. Those who wish to improve their game should look on their defeats as lessons. You may have to lose hundreds of games before emerging as a master.” [-Capablanca]
2. The early success of young and the excessive enthusiastic estimates of adults only hamper the further development of young talent.
3. Man is the master of his talents which can fully blossom only when one is a self critical, self disciplined and indefatigable worker.
4. In chess you can find a way of self realization.
5. To study theory and practice everyday is to create a base for one’s intuition to help one in hard tournament trials and to correctly evaluate one’s chance in the most complex positions.
