About the Book

“I’d rather have a pawn than a finger.” —Reuben Fine

What The Reviewers Are Saying About Essential Chess Quotations “Whether you want the funny…, the thought-provoking…or the inspiring…this is a handy work to keep by the bedside for dipping into.”
—ICCM Timothy Harding, Chess author and publisher.

“All very entertaining! Books like these belong to the treasury of chess. Recommended!”
—John Elburg Book reviewer at the Chess Mail web site.

“John Knudsen brings together some of the best known quotes and epigrams of chess. From masters like Morphy to Fischer, and non-masters from Pascal to Letterman, all are witty sayings about this game we call chess. Essential Chess Quotations sums up what chess is and isn’t to the players who have mastered the game and to the non-players who have given up on the game. The quotes about correspondence chess are especially revealing from players who either love or hate postal play. From the humorous to the philosophical, it’s all here in one big collection. And you can quote me.”
—Bill Wall Prolific chess author and philosopher.

“If chess games could be won by flinging the perfect quote at your opponent, then ESSENTIAL CHESS QUOTATIONS would be John Knudsen’s MY SYSTEM. I certainly intend to quote from it, even if it doesn’t raise my rating.”
—FM Alex Dunne Chess author and “The Check Is In The Mail” columnist.
