Robert James "Bobby" Fischer (March 9, 1943 – January 17, 2008) was an American chess grandmaster and the eleventh World Chess Champion. He is the greatest chess player of all times.

Dick Cavitt: "And you like that moment of just crushing the guy?"

RJ Fischer: "Right *nodding and smiling*, yeah."

"The chess heroes nowadays should not forget that it was owing to Fischer that they are living today in four- and five-star hotels, getting appearance fees, etc." ― Lev Khariton

A special tip o' the hat to chess historian Edward Winter. The entire chess world owes Mr. Winter a huge debt of gratitude for his steadfast historical research of our fascinating game and it's many stories. He is a great champion of the game too!

"Chess is a fairy tale of 1,001 blunders." ― Savielly Tartakower

"Pawns are the soul of the game." ― François-André Danican Philidor

"The king pawn and the queen pawn are the only ones to be moved in the early part of the game." ― Wilhelm Steinitz

"There is no such thing as an absolutely freeing move. A freeing move in a position in which development has not been carried far always proves illusory, and vice versa, a move which does not come at all in the category of freeing moves can, given a surplus of tempi to our credit, lead to a very free game." ― Aron Nimzowitsch

"The future reshapes the memory of the past in the way it recalibrates significance: some episodes are advanced, others lose purchase." ― Gregory Maguire, A Lion Among Men

"Whoever said the pen is mightier than the sword obviously never encountered automatic weapons." ― Douglas MacArthur

My friend, I am afraid despite being a Fischer fan that I must disagree with you that Fischer was the best player in the world in 1960. Fischer was wiped out by Tal (0-4) in 1959. And Tal was World Champion in 1960 and 1961.

You cannot lose 4-0 to another and claim to be the best in the world; there is no excuse to losing 4-0 to another player in serious games. That result is incredibly telling! #

Just to add some facts; Gligoric beat Fischer 4 times, lost once and drew 6 times until 1962. When these two met in 1966 and thereafter, Fischer never lost to Gligoric. Fischer won or drew. Again until 1965, Reshevsky seemed to have been Fischer's match; but from 1966 onwards Fischer beat Reshevsky 5 times, losing no game and drawing thrice.

Therefore, it appears that Fischer became the world's strongest player from around 1966. This is my view. #

The Little Fish and the Fisher

A little fish will grow,
If life be spared, a great;
But yet to let him go,
And for his growing wait,
May not be very wise,
As It's not sure your bait
Will catch him when of size.
On a river bank, a fisher took
A tiny troutling from his hook.
Said he, "'Twill serve to count, at least,
As the beginning of my feast;
And so I'll put it with the rest."
This little fish, thus caught,
His clemency besought.
"What will your honour do with me?
I'm not a mouthful, as you see.
Pray let me grow to be a trout,
And then come here and fish me out.
Some alderman, who likes things nice,
Will buy me then at any price.
But now, a hundred such you'll have to fish,
To make a single good-for-nothing dish."
"Well, well, be it so," replied the fisher,
"My little fish, who play the preacher,
The frying-pan must be your lot,
Although, no doubt, you like it not:
I fry the fry that can be got."

In some things, men of sense
Prefer the present to the future tense.

Proverbs 31:28
Her children rise up and call her blessed; Her husband also, and he praises her.

Riddle Question: You answer me, although I never ask you questions. What am I?

RJ Fischer won the World Chess Championship 1972 in 21 games (12½–8½) over reigning champion Boris Spassky of the Soviet Union.

Riddle Answer: A telephone.

Psalms 31:24 - Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.

Life is Too Short
by Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Life is too short for any vain regretting;
Let dead delight bury its dead, I say,
And let us go upon our way forgetting
The joys, and sorrows, of each yesterday.
Between the swift sun's rising and its setting, We have no time for useless tears or fretting,
Life is too short.

Life is too short for any bitter feeling;
Time is the best avenger if we wait,
The years speed by, and on their wings bear healing, We have no room for anything like hate.
This solemn truth the low mounds seem revealing
That thick and fast about our feet are stealing, Life is too short.

Life is too short for aught but high endeavor,— Too short for spite, but long enough for love.
And love lives on forever and forever,
It links the worlds that circle on above;
‘Tis God's first law, the universe's lever. In His vast realm the radiant souls sigh never
"Life is too short."

"Intelligence plus character-that is the goal of true education." ― Martin Luther King Jr.

"Never chase love, affection, or attention. If it isn't given freely by another person, it isn't worth having." ― Unknown

Jesus Christ was actually God in human form on earth as was prophesized years before his earthly birth. (That concept used to blow me away as a child. How can a Father be a Son? Suffice it to say in simplest terms, He was a chip off the old block; I mean this in the very most respectful manner.)

If I understand correctly, Jesus Christ felt emotions and temptations as all humans do, but He was PERFECT, never sinned, not once - EVER. Thus a pure Lamb of God was sacrificed on the wooden cross for the sins of all mankind (a 34-year-old virgin in body, heart and mind). Thus sacrificial offerings as described in the Old Testament are no longer necessary because Jesus Christ suffered so for all God's children in the New Testament. Therefore, any and all who accept Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior are forgiven of their sins. Now that is SOME bargain!!! (We are still held accountable for our behaviors on judgement day -- God knows every single sin that each person has ever done -- but yet we are forgiven through Jesus Christ!!!) It is my understanding that we are then perfect souls in Heaven. The depth of such love, justice and mercy is mind boggling.

It is my understanding that for a person to think of a sin is as bad as actually doing the sin. In other words, one can commit adultery or murder, etc. etc. in their mind. Furthermore, a little white lie is just as bad as a big whopper lie. So outwardly one may exercise self-control, but dirty thoughts is a sin.

Therefore, it is extreeeeemely difficult for humans to be Christ-like, but the example has been set for us to follow. Please do not use my example (competition brings out the best and worst in a person); Cormier does so much better striving to be a man of faith. Prayer will pull a person closer to God, and it makes Him happy to hear from us.

While I certainly don't know the specific answer to your question (perhaps asked frivolously), given this information, the answer surely must be NO, without a doubt NO. He has gone without. That is His way. That is also why you can count on Him. He's as reliable as breathing air.

Jesus was not married. The only morally acceptable form of sexual relations is between Husband and Wife. All other forms are considered a sin. Catholic nuns and priests are not married either, so one would assume... Again, they are humans. Don't honestly expect them to be perfect, try as they might.

Jesus Christ gave His ALL for mankind! He did without ALL sinful pleasures. Jesus Christ was perfect, but they painfully crucified Him, which he essentially allowed to happen as the fulfilling of prophecy on behalf of mankind. One could say that Jesus Christ was completely obedient to God and did His duty as tasked for US.

More than you wanted to know. I tried to give a clear, honest answer.

Just remember, no matter where you've been, no matter what you've said or done, no matter how bad (or good) a person that you are, forgiveness is yours through accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. He knows if you're sincere. He also knows that you are not a perfect person and that you have doubts, that you struggle w/religious concepts. He knows your every inner thought, your attitudes, doubts, your intentions good or bad. If you're making progress.... that's good. If you're not making progress and hoping to fool Our Creator with an outward bluff... not gonna happen. You just accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, and He will work with you. Don't wait until you've made steps for personal better to deem yourself more worthy. He's not worried about that. His arms are open wide every minute. He knows your faults; you come forward just as you are. He knows you far, far better than your entire family knows you. He knows EVERYTHING about you. He knows what you ate for breakfast on 3/12/76. He knows about that pencil that you conveniently kept. He knows EVERYTHING -- all your thoughts. You don't need to try to fool Him because you can't fool Him. Just say that you want Him in your life and that you're ready and willing to learn more about Him, be more like Him (less worldly), and thank Him for His unconditional love and grace. Just get started; He knows that you're not the Pope; it's your sincerity that counts. He knows your heart, your mind, your entire history. He made you! For most people it'll probably be kinda like going on a diet; there will be lapses, but keep striving to know the Holy Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen!

Oh, the Old Testament/Moses/Ten Commandments/Noah's Arc etc. tend to be rather famous theatrically, but I'd recommend reading the four Gospels first: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. There are Bible study aids that help one understand what's going on. The Bible is not an easy book to comprehend at all times. Just keep making daily progress. "Lean not on thy own understanding."

Funny... I've never thought of such a question until now. I was always worried about myself, not His ordeals. God is omnipotent -- that kind of knowledge and power and presence is way beyond our comprehension. He's in charge of everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING!!!
