Fischer in Quotes  :cool:
           
  • On winning: "I like the moment when I break a man's ego"
  • On the spirit of chess: "Chess is war over the board. The object is to crush the opponent's mind."
  • On self belief: "There's no-one alive I can't beat."
  • On growing up: "When I was eleven, I just got good."
  • On the media: "I despise the media."

Even to those outside the chess world :

Bobby Fischer was a baffling, beguiling, infuriating personality.

Most wanted to judge him either mad or bad -

he fitted the romantic image of genius perfectly......... :cool:

On 9/11, after planes flew into the World Trade Center, costing thousands of lives,

he appeared on Filipino radio and declared the news "wonderful".

"Death to the US", he said.

His violent anti-Americanism was matched by an equally virulent anti-Semitism -

though he himself was of Jewish origin........ ::lol:: ::lol::

He was finally picked up in Japan in 2004 -

He might have been extradited to the United States  :angry:

Iceland - the country he'd put on the map in 1972 -

not offered him honorary citizenship.

He died there four years later. ::redface:: ::redface::
