Games Quotes

Often you will find the opposite situation. The author seems to have interesting ideas, but he is not able to illustrate them with decent examples. If a grandmaster is commenting on one of his own games, then there is usually not any problem: his general thoughts are closely tied up with what is happening on the board. But as soon as he starts writing an article or book on a different theme the difficulties begin, as he may not have suitable material to hand Picture Quote #1

To play with correctness and skill the ends of games, is an important but a very rare accomplishment, expect among the magnates of the game Picture Quote #1

The intelligent perusal of fine games cannot fail to make the reader a better player and a better judge of the play of others Picture Quote #1

The most intelligent inspection of any number of fine paintings will not make the observer a painter, nor will listening to a number of operas make the hearer a musician, but good judges of music and painting may so be formed. 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 Picture Quote #1

Lack of patience is probably the most common reason for losing a game, or drawing games that should have been won Picture Quote #1

My forte was the middlegame. I had a good feeling for the critical moments of the play. This undoubtedly compensated for my lack of opening preparation and, possibly, not altogether perfect play in the endgame. In my games things often did not reach the endgame! Picture Quote #1

If you are physically ready to play, it’s a matter of confidence. Your confidence goes down when you lose games, when shots are not going in Picture Quote #1

When you strip away the genre differences and the technological complexities, all games share four defining traits: a goal, rules, a feedback system, and voluntary participation Picture Quote #1

If you are a gamer, it’s time to get over any regret you might feel about spending so much time playing games. You have not been wasting your time. You have been building up a wealth of virtual experience that, as the first half of this book will show you, can teach you about your true self: what your core strengths are, what really motivates you, and what make you happiest Picture Quote #1

I want gaming to be something that everybody does, because they understand that games can be a real solution to problems and a real source of happiness. I want games to be something everybody learns how to design and develop, because they understand that games are a real platform for change and getting things done. And I want families, schools, companies, industries, cities, countries, and the whole world to come together to play them, because we’re finally making games that tackle real dilemmas and improve real lives Picture Quote #1

I see a future in which games once again are explicitly designed to improve quality of life, to prevent suffering, and to create real, widespread happiness Picture Quote #1

There is no problem that doesn’t have some underlying need for more optimism, stamina, resilience and collaboration. And games are, I believe, the best platform we have for providing that Picture Quote #1

I believe passionately that games are an art form and that the power of our medium flows from our audience, who are deeply involved in how the story unfolds and who have the uncontested right to provide constructive criticism. At the same time, I also believe in and support the artistic choices made by the development team Picture Quote #1

Gaming has been a great way to get to know people. That’s part of what I love about games, that they are social Picture Quote #1

The amount of times my wife has rolled her eyes at board games is impossible to count Picture Quote #1

It’s north and south pole. When you win you feel great, but when you lose it, it’s like you’ve lost 10 games in a row Picture Quote #1

I consider video games a form of design that is amazingly important today and that is going to become even more important in the future, because it is a way we interact with machines and screens Picture Quote #1

We hope everyone will join us in showing everyone just how much fun video games can be Picture Quote #1

It is unpleasant for the players, when the organizers arrange for play to take place in the morning. The games from such last rounds, in view of the large number of mistakes, are not fit for publication! Picture Quote #1

I really don’t care much about baseball, or looking at ball games, major or minor. All my interest in baseball is in its statistics Picture Quote #1

I’m very honest and I know where I am. If you look at the table and the games we have got left to win, we need a miracle Picture Quote #1

For every young person living on the streets tonight, there are many at home zoning out inside their homes through video games, and even more who disengage from school. These are direct effects of internalized discrimination based on their age Picture Quote #1

Every month I look through some ten thousand games, so not as to miss any new ideas and trends Picture Quote #1

From time to time, like many other players, I glance through my own games of earlier years, and return to positions and variations which have gone out of practice. I attempt to restore them, to find new ideas and plans Picture Quote #1

You’re gonna lose some ball games and you’re gonna win some ball games and that’s about it Picture Quote #1

I’m not satisfied. I’m still enjoying this. I still feel like I’m in the best part of my career and I can play at a high level. This is what I love to do: playing football and winning games Picture Quote #1

I dislike organized games, swimming pools, fashionable resorts, night clubs, music in restaurants, and political manifestoes; I enjoy driving from coast to coast, good food and drink, a few friends, dogs, the theatre, long walks, music and free conversation Picture Quote #1

You don’t win or lose the games bcoz of 11 you select. You win or lose with what those 11 do on the field Picture Quote #1

Games are a trigger for adults to again become primitive, primal, as a way of thinking and remembering. An adult is a child who has more ethics and morals, that’s all. I am not creating a game. I am in the game. The game is not for children, it is for me. It is for an adult who still has a character of a child Picture Quote #1

We’ve been in all the big games, we’ve been in small games, and we’ve treated them all the same and I think that mentality is what’s helped us get to the point where we are now Picture Quote #1
