Yes it is!

Miguel Najdorf is a Polish-Born, Argentine Grandmaster of Jewish decent with a sense of humor(Checked in Wikipedia).

Heres a quote:

"When Boris Spassky offers you a piece, you might as well resign then and there. But when Tal offers you a piece, you would do well to keep playing, because then he might offer you another, and then another, and then ... who knows?"
