Another one.''Always check,It might be mate''.
no i dont think its Fischer, its sounds more like Tarrasch or someone like that... Fischer didnt play too many patzers in his life to actually know.

Visualize where you want your pieces to be. Then put them there.
I forget who...
"Sir, if you could beat me, I would know you." - Capablanca, when an unknown protested Capa's decision to play him at Queen-odds, on the grounds that Capa didn't know him, and could perhaps lose.

I've read it this way:
Chess is like life with 3 parts: an opening where you hope to become the better game; a middle game where you think you have the better game and an ending where you know you have a lost game!
Indeed great and so true also for life!

I guess it was Tarrasch, Fischer (sometimes or was it Larry Evans?) liked to quote Tarrasch (German: "Sieht der Patzer ein Schach, gibt er es!")!
one of my favourite quotes is also this one by Tal :
You have to take you opponent into a dark forrest were 1 plus 1 is not 2 and where the path out is only wide enough for one person.
