" Reti studies mathematics although he is not a dry mathematician; represents Vienna without being Viennese; was born in old Hungary yet he does not know Hungarian; speaks uncommonly rapidly only in order to act all the more maturely and deliberately; and will become the best chessplayer without, however, becoming world champion. "
Quotes
" "There are no hopeless positions;there are only inferior positions that can be saved. There are no drawn positions;there are only equal ones in which you can play for a win. But at the same time, don't forget that there is no such thing as a won positionin which it is impossible to lose." |
