Guy watching others play chess says he sees a move. -The Onion

When the Pawn hits the conflicts he thinks like a King what he knows throws the blows when he goes to the fight and he'll win the whole thing 'fore he enters the ring there's no body to batter when your mind is your might so when you go solo, you hold your own hand and remember that depth is the greatest of heights and if you know where you stand, then you know where to land and if you fall it won't matter, cuz you'll know that you're right. - Fiona Apple

"Chess is the art which expresses the science of logic" - Mikhail Botvinnik
I had this engraved on the side of a wooden board I bought recently. I wanted some chess quote or other and looked at several hundred before choosing. I'm fairly new to chess (or rather, to attempting to get better at it), so I picked this quote because I was a computer programmer and I felt a connection with Botvinnik in that regard.
