Chess as intellectual productiveness - Siegbert Tarrasch, "The Game of Chess".

This quote was added by valdi
Chess is a form of intellectual productiveness, therein lies its peculiar charm. Intellectual productiveness is one of the greatest joys -if not the greatest one- of human existence. It is not everyone who can write a play, or build a bridge, or even make a good joke. But in chess everyone can, indeed must, be intellectually productive and so can share in this selected delight.
