There was a quote by some player and it sounded something like : "Gentlemen dont play chess" or "Chess is game for villains" something like that. Can someone remind how it was exactly?
"Chess is ruthless; you've got to be prepared to kill people" --Nigel Short
"Chess is not for timid souls"--Wilhelm Steinitz.

"Chess is like a box of choclates... You never know what game you will get" F. Gump
"in chess when a man is down you may kick him" chernev
I thought there was a quote something along the lines of "To play chess is gentlemanly, to play chess well is the sign of a wasted life."
On those lines... "Life is too short to play chess"
"Give me liberty, or give me chess."
I'm actually glad to see this topic derailed. There is an item just for this on the old roadmap:
"- show chess quotes during analysis"
No promises, but it could be come a thing given a large enough (and I mean, very large!) database of quotes. I'd find it really cool myself. It would remind me of computer games like the Total War series which like to place pompous philosophical quotes in their loading screens.

That reminds me of Call of Duty.
COD 3 had a quote from a famous military official in between load times.
