I play chess badly and I've been beaten by my 10-year old son

Al Michaels is a good announcer. I think Keith Jackson is a terrific announcer. I always loved him on Monday Night Football. I never understood why they got rid of him

If I was a criminal, stationery stores and bakeries would be the two kinds of places I would concentrate on.

Games sometimes can reveal things. To watch someone in movement, unconscious movement, can be very stimulating and revealing, whether they win or not

It's great to watch someone get the most out of what they can do, whether they're a beautiful performer or just a really gritty performer. It's something to behold.

Nothing easier. One step beyond the pole, you see, and the north wind becomes a south one.

People are always giving you credit for really wanting to say more than you said.
