I've always liked Grandmaster Tov Kronsteen, the SPECTRE agent in From Russia with Love who refused orders to quit immediately in the middle of his game at the Venice International Tournament, and later gave this explanation to his overlords:
If, with only three minutes to go, I had received a message that my wife was being murdered outside the door of the tournament hall, I would not have raised a finger to save her.
Gotta love the truly dedicated!

edit: Whoops! I just discovered there's a blog post on chess.com about Kronsteen.
I like Garry Kasparov. I got his autograph at the Supernations!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I got 3.5 out of 7.
SuperNATIONALS. Get the name right.
