Nobody wins at chess

Everyone loses.  If you lose you deserve to lose because you played poorly 

If you win it is only because the other person played poorly.

This is my opinion:
Everyone wins. If you win, you win because you played better than the other person. If you lost, you win because you learned something.

Then what is the point of playing something you have such a negative view of?

Nobody wins in the sense of boxing or MMA.

Like chess, a champion today will be beaten by a hungry contender tomorrow.

That's the same in everything else in life.

The only winning is learning something in the process.

More fortune cookie,

When you surpass an opponent, you are surpassing yourself.

As long as there is something you enjoy about the game you are winning. If there's nothing you enjoy about it then chess is not for you. Win, lose, draw, just have fun in the process.
