Best 4 quotes of Josh Waitzkin on MyQuotes

Great ones are willing to get burned time and again as they sharpen their swords in the fire.

My instinct is always to seek out challenges as opposed to avoiding them.

So if you think that when you are better, it means that you can smash ahead and mate the guy, you are wrong, that is not what better means. What better means is that your position has the potential, if played correctly, to turn out well. So do not think that when you are better and when you are attacking that you can just force mate. That is not what it is about. Often the way to play best, the way to play within the position, is to maintain it.

There will be nothing learned from any challenge in which we don't try our hardest.
