King Quotes

It cannot be too greatly emphasized that the most important role in pawn endings is played by the king Picture Quote #1

The business of the endgame is maneuvring to control critical squares, advancing or blockading passed pawns, preparing a breakthrough by the king, or exploiting the subtle superiority of one piece over another Picture Quote #1

In the middlegame, the king is merely an extra, but in the endgame, he is one of the star actors Picture Quote #1

If you study the classic examples of endgame play you will see how the king was brought up as soon as possible even though there seemed no particular hurry at the time Picture Quote #1

Plenty of white space and generous line spacing,and don’t make the type size too miserly. Then you will be assured of a product fit for a king Picture Quote #1

A gambit never becomes sheer routine as long as you fear you may lose the king and pawn ending! Picture Quote #1

A male scorpion is stabbed to death after mating. In chess, the powerful queen often does the same to the king without giving him the satisfaction of a lover Picture Quote #1

I’m ready to forgive him for the desire to be a king, but not for wanting to have 23 million court jesters Picture Quote #1

Information has become king, whereas wisdom should be king and there is a big difference between the two Picture Quote #1

Imagination is a danger thus every totalitarian regime is frightened of the artist. It is the vocation of the prophet to keep alive the ministry of imagination to keep on conjouring and proposing alternative futures to the single one the king wants to urge as the only thinkable one Picture Quote #1

When corruption is king, there is no accountability of leadership and no trust in authority. Society devolves to the basic units of family and self, to the basic instincts of getting what you can when you can, because you don’t believe anything better will ever come along. And when the only horizon is tomorrow, how can you care about the kind of nation you are building for your children and your grandchildren? How can you call on your government to address what ails society and build stronger institutions? Picture Quote #1

Since bad men find the rule of kings no less burdensome than that of tyrants, the recognition of the right of private citizens to kill tyrants involves rather more chance of losing a king than of being relieved of a tyrant Picture Quote #1

All these questions about do you want to be king? It’s not a question of wanting to be, it’s something I was born into and it’s my duty... Wanting is not the right word. But those stories about me not wanting to be king are all wrong Picture Quote #1

Bread is the king of the table and all else is merely the court that surrounds the king. The countries are the soup, the meat, the vegetables, the salad, but bread is king Picture Quote #1

Away with your president! We shall have a king... the army will salute him as monarch; your militia will leave you and assist in making him king and fight against you. And what have you to oppose this force? What will then become of you and your rights? Picture Quote #1

The king pawn and the queen pawn are the only ones to be moved in the early part of the game Picture Quote #1

The lion in the jungle makes every other animal sit up and take notice as soon as he lets out a roar. He didn’t get that way through artificial paraphernalia or through springs and wires and trick dumbells. He became the king of the jungle through constant natural use of every muscle in his body Picture Quote #1

If once a man delays castling and his king remains in the center, files will open up against him, bishops sweep the board, rooks will dominate the seventh rank, and pawns turn into queens Picture Quote #1

As long as my opponent has not yet castled, on each move I seek a pretext for an offensive. Even when I realize that the king is not in danger Picture Quote #1

Every man by nature is a freeman born; by nature no man cometh out of the womb under any civil subjection to king, prince, or judge Picture Quote #1

The lyrics were my sarcastic way of realizing you can’t be the king of the hill all the time Picture Quote #1

If we will not endure a king as a political power, we should not endure a king over the production, transportation, and sale of any of the necessities of life Picture Quote #1

Kings don’t beg, they decree. They have only one destiny and that’s to reign. God has made you king. Reign and rule, refuse to beg! Picture Quote #1

Very well! he said. You shall prove your worth by facing me in a joust! I’d never heard of an undead lich king challenging someone to a joust. Especially not in a subterranean burial chamber. All right, I said uncertainly. But won’t we be needing horses for that? Not horses, he replied, stepping away from his throne. Birds Picture Quote #1

A king who feared wasps once decreed that they were abolished. As it happened, they did him no harm. But he was eventually stung to death by scorpions Picture Quote #1

Even if a king defeats his enemy in battle, that still doesn’t settle anything. There are other, less numerous armies of philosophers and scientists, and their contests determine the true triumph or defeat of nations. One scholar is matched with another; one creative mind with another; and one judicious temperament with his counterpart. A victory won on that field counts for three won by force of arms Picture Quote #1

I was a king and a king’s heir and now I am a slave Picture Quote #1

I want to be one of the greats. I want to be the pound for pound king and I know what it takes to get there Picture Quote #1

If you’re demanding a rodeo jester be thrown in the dungeons for mocking the king, don’t pretend you support a free country Picture Quote #1

I’m the diamond in the dirt, that ain’t been found. I’m the underground king and I ain’t been crowned Picture Quote #1
