Chess Is A Matter Of Vanity.

Oh! This Opponent, This Collaborator Against His Will, Whose Notion Of Beauty Always Differs From Yours And Whose Means (strength, Imagination, Technique) Are Often Too Limited To Help You Effectively! What Torment, To Have Your Thinking And Your Phantasy Tied Down By Another Person!

I Consider Chess An Art, And Accept All Those Responsibilities Which Art Places Upon Its Devotees.

Chess Is A Matter Of Vanity.

Capablanca Was Snatched Too Early From The Chess World. With His Death We Have Lost A Great Chess Genius, The Like Of Whom We Will Never See Again.

Chess, Like Other Arts, Must Be Practiced To Be Appreciated.
