Why I love chess...
It's not only because of the "beauty of the game" - a phrase Kasparov loves to use - it's also because it unifies people. Even though "chess is war" (Seirawan) - so true - everyone can learn the rules and connect to others, regardless if you're poor, stinking rich, live in a prison cell or own some politicians. On the field of chess everyone is equal, just limited by fantasy, experience and training (or lack thereof).
It truly is a tool to educate your mind.
