Text Quotes
Migrants and refugees are not pawns on the chessboard of humanity  (Chessboard Quotes) The carnage upon the chessboard of life, left wounded humans in its wake  (Chessboard Quotes) On the chessboard, lies and hypocrisy do not survive long  (Chessboard Quotes) My world we humans we’re just pawns on an immortal chessboard  (Chessboard Quotes) An isolated pawn spreads gloom all over the chessboard  (Chessboard Quotes) There are more adventures on a chessboard than on all the seas of the world  (Chessboard Quotes) On the chessboard, if nowhere else, justice does triumph  (Chessboard Quotes) You may knock your opponent down with the chessboard, but that does not prove that you are the better player  (Chessboard Quotes) I have a house, with two big plasma-screen TVs, two dogs, a grill, chessboard. I like to keep it low-key: invite friends over, order some Papa John’s pizzas and Coors Light, play poker and ping-pong and chill. I’m pretty private.  (Chessboard Quotes) The stock market and the gridiron and the battlefield aren’t as tidy as the chessboard, but in all of them, a single, simple rule holds true: make good decisions and you’ll succeed; make bad ones and you’ll fail.  (Chessboard Quotes) The center of the chessboard is a magnet, which pulls to itself all the pieces. Therefore the most beautiful and amazing moves, for me, are those with which a piece, counteracting the gravitational force of the center, suddenly fly to the edge of the board  (Chessboard Quotes) The stock market and the gridiron and the battlefield aren’t as tidy as the chessboard, but in all of them, a single, simple rule holds true: make good decisions and you’ll succeed; make bad ones and you’ll fail  (Chessboard Quotes) I looked down at the chessboard. The move with the knight was wrong. I put it back where I had moved it from. Knights had no meaning in this game. It wasn’t a game for knights  (Chessboard Quotes) That she won the game startled me cold. The way she won, the pattern of her thought on the chessboard, charmed me warm again and then some  (Chessboard Quotes) Common sense does not ask an impossible chessboard, but takes the one before it and plays the game  (Chessboard Quotes) Unchecked pride evolves into swagger, a hypnotizing mask of insecurity that can and does compromise our ability to make progress and attain power. Pride stands in the way of forgiveness and a strategic approach to navigating a chessboard rigged to prevent pawns from becoming kings and queens  (Chessboard Quotes) I started by just sitting by the chessboard exploring things. I didn’t even have books at first, and I just played by myself. I learnt a lot from that, and I feel that it is a big reason why I now have a good intuitive understanding of chess  (Chessboard Quotes) On the chessboard, lies and hypocrisy do not survive long. The creative combination lays bare the presumption of a lie; the merciless fact, culminating in the checkmate, contradicts the hypocrite  (Chessboard Quotes) I learnt an enormous amount, but there came a point where I found there was too much stress. It was no fun any more. Outside of the chessboard I avoid conflict, so I thought this wasn’t worth it  (Chessboard Quotes) It is important that you don’t let your opponent impose his style of play on you. A part of that begins mentally. At the chessboard if you start blinking every time he challenges you then in a certain sense you are withdrawing. That is very important to avoid  (Chessboard Quotes) I became aware of just how fleeting the sense of happiness was, and how flimsy its basis: a warm restaurant after having come in from the rain, the smell of food and wine, interesting conversation, daylight falling weakly on the polished cherrywood of the tables. It took so little to move the mood from one level to another, as one might push pieces on a chessboard. Even to be aware of this, in the midst of a happy moment, was to push one of those pieces, and to become slightly less happy  (Chessboard Quotes) The field of action of a photograph should be that chessboard of the heart and mind upon which poetry and art have always operated  (Chessboard Quotes) It suddenly occurred to me that every move on the chessboard is old and has been played by somebody at some time. Maybe our own history has been played out by somebody at some time, and we just move our pieces about in the same moves to strike in the same way as people have always done  (Chessboard Quotes) Wars should be fought with words, not bombs, not weapons. And calm words. I think that wars should be fought over a chessboard and a cup of something to drink  (Chessboard Quotes)
