Famous quotes containing the words world and/or chess:

    What I hated even more than the conflict was the lurid spectacle of a world of unreason.
    Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)

    Women’s childhood relationships with their fathers are important to them all their lives. Regardless of age or status, women who seem clearest about their goals and most satisfied with their lives and personal and family relationships usually remember that their fathers enjoyed them and were actively interested in their development.
