"You don't stop playing when you
get old; you get old when you stop playing!"
Benjamin Franklin

Here is the only truth: "We are the
pawns of the mysterious game of chess played by God, who moves
us, stops us, shifts us ahead, and soon picks us up
one after the other and gathers us in the same box of Nothing."
Omar Khayyam 1040 ad

"Chess grips its exponent,
shackling the mind and brain so that the inner freedom and independence
of even the strongest character cannot remain unaffected."
Albert
Einstein

"Imagination does not breed insanity.
Exactly what does breed insanity is reason. Poets do not go
mad; but chess-players do".
—Chesterton, The Maniac
(1908).
