Whoever sees no other aim in the game than that of giving checkmate to one's opponent will never become a good Chess player.

When humans team up with computers to play chess, the humans who do best are not necessarily the strongest players. They're the ones who are modest and who know when to listen to the computer. Often, what the human adds is knowledge of when the computer needs to look more deeply.
I'm a pretty good chess player.
Chess is so inspiring that I do not believe a good player is capable of having an evil thought during the game.
Among a great many other things that chess teaches you is to control the initial excitement you feel when you see something that looks good. It trains you to think before grabbing and to think just as objectively when you're in trouble.
In chess one cannot control everything. Sometimes a game takes an unexpected turn, in which beauty begins to emerge. Both players are always instrumental in this.
Chess is a thinking person's game. But you don't have to be smart to know what's funny! Lots of check, mate!
Chess helps you to concentrate, improve your logic. It teaches you to play by the rules and take responsibility for your actions, how to problem solve in an uncertain environment.
It's a shame to be the face of chess and to play chess badly.
Chess first of all teaches you to be objective.
When neither party can give checkmate, the game is drawn.
