I play a lot of chess. I probably played 200 games while we were making 'Andromeda.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My whole career I'm used to playing a lot of games.
I was world champion. For me, chess is my life. It is everything.
Chess has given me a lot more than I could ask for. I have been able to feel special, travel the world and do what I truly enjoy. Moreover, chess players love being their own boss and hate having to wake up early!
When I was a kid, I really liked playing chess, which is pretty geeky; I just enjoyed it - thinking, exercising my mind. And I found computers to be like an eight-hour day chess game.
Chess is my life, but my life is not chess.
I was highly attracted to chess for forty or forty-five years; then, little by little, my enthusiasm lessened.
I still love to play chess. So I do not even spend a minute on the possibility to step back.
I'm a pretty good chess player.
Chess is life.
I don't play chess with my life, ya' know.
