Without error, there is no brilliancy  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) I have known many chess players, but among them there has been only one genius - Capablanca!  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) I believe in magic ... There is magic in the creative faculty such as great poets and philosophers conspicuously possess, and equally in the creative chessmaster.  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) By what right does White, in an absolutely even position, such as after move one, when both sides have advanced 1. e4, sacrifice a pawn, whose recapture is quite uncertain, and open up his kingside to attack? And then follow up this policy by leaving the check of the black queen open? None whatever!  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) The game gives us a satisfaction that Life denies us. And for the Chess player, the success which crowns his work, the great dispeller of sorrows, is named ‘combination’  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) Education in Chess has to be an education in independent thinking and judging. Chess must not be memorized  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) I keep on fighting as long as my opponent can make a mistake  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) When you see a good move, look for a better one  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) To find the right plan is just as hard as looking for its sound justification  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) The attack is that process by means of which you remove obstructions  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) On the chessboard, lies and hypocrisy do not survive long  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) The hardest game to win is a won game  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) Without error there can be no brilliancy  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) Chess is, above all, a fight  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) The range of circumstances in which it is possible to presuppose the presence of a combination is very limited.

Chess differs from these. The intelligent perusal of fine games cannot fail to make the reader a better player and a better judge of the play of others  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) He who has a slight disadvantage plays more attentively, inventively and more boldly than his antagonist who either takes it easy or aspires after too much. Thus a slight disadvantage is very frequently seen to convert into a good, solid advantage  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) Show me three variations in the leading handbook on the openings, and I will show you two of those three that are defective  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) Our efforts in chess attain only a hundredth of one percent of their rightful result... Our education, in all domains of endeavour, is frightfully wasteful of time and values  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) The combination player thinks forward; he starts from the given position, and tries the forceful moves in his mind  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes) The laws of chess do not permit a free choice: you have to move whether you like it or not  (Emanuel Lasker 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  (Emanuel Lasker Quotes)
