'All I want to do, ever, is just play Chess’ Life is like a game of chess, as the proverb goes: it changes with every move. Across the board, players confess to seeing the world in new ways, observing the movement of time differently or making sense of art, science and politics. Its beauty has captured the imagination of many of the world's greatest minds, across several generations. In this book, we have compiled some of the finest wit and wisdom from the world of chess. Whether about tactics, pieces, victories or blunders, these quotes collectively pay homage to history’s most beloved game and how it reflects the world in which we live. After all, chess is life.
