Past Thinking Years
Americans like a winner. If you lose, you’re nothing. I’m going to win, though. It’s good for the match that Spassky has a plus score against me. We’ve met five times. He’s won three times and we’ve drawn twice. But I’m a stronger player and a long match favors me.
BOBBY FISCHER

Long Player Winning
Concentrate on material gains. Whatever your opponent gives you take, unless you see a good reason not to.
