Chess Quotes

When you see a good move, look for a better one.
Emanuel Lasker

Jose Raul Capablanca
Help your pieces so they can help you.
Paul Morphy
Chess is a test of wills.
Paul Keres
You are never too old to play chess!
Bobby Fischer
Win with grace, lose with dignity!
Susan Polgar
Chess, like love, like music, has the power to make men happy.
Siegbert Tarrasch
The biggest problem I see among people who want to excel in chess – and in business and in life in general – is not trusting their instincts enough.
