My favorite quote about chess

I found this quote about chess at "Bronstein On The King's Indian" by David Bronstein with Ken Neat.

"Winning or losing is not the main idea of chess at all. A chess game is in fact a friendly exchange of intentions, hidden in individual moves. You always have the choice either of putting into action your planned move, or of first calmly preventing the intended move of the friend with whom you are playing chess in this brief, finite moment of your life."

The best place to learn how to play chess, watch chess games, study chess, play chess, and use computer analysis to find out what mistakes were made is at https://lichess.org which is totally free with no ads.
