| Karpova: Some quotations from Marcel Duchamp - with sources: http://www.poemhunter.com/quotation... Quote #7:
<<I am still a victim of chess. It has all the beauty of art—and much more. It cannot be commercialized. Chess is much purer than art in its social position.>(Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968), French artist. Time (New York, March 10, 1952). Duchamp had given up painting in favor of chess thirty years before.)> |

| drkodos: Headed back to Phila this week and will of course make a pilgrimage. Past summer (2008) I took a chess-friend to World Open (with all sincere intent to play). When he realized how close we were to the museum (walking distance) he ended up not playing a single game of chess in the week we were there. |

I'd read that she recorded a video that she's naked in it playing chess. I can't find the link. |

| Oliveira: <NakoSonorese> Yeah, you know, "knowing zero French" you went reasonable, stroke on the post. You understood the words, but you made a mistake. I haven't ever studied French as well, but being a Portuguese native speaker (Brazilian!) even knowing nothing about French, I still know something! The correct <literal> translation is: "If not all artists are chessplayers, all chessplayers are artists." In your translation is implied that all artists are not chessplayers, what is not true at all. A similar mistranslation was made by me when I misinterpreted the English rendition "Not all artists may be chessplayers" by "Not all artists <can> be chessplayers." Then I realized that "may" indeed indicates likelihood or probability in contrast with capability or ability as "can" does. This arouse for in general both "can" e "may" have the same correspondent, "poder", in Portuguese and Spanish as you know. Arriba, muchacho! |

| Oliveira: <Shams: At their respective bests, who was stronger -- Duchamp or Janowski?> I've got to admit that I haven't played over Duchamp games, but Janowsky was one of the bests of his time, and a time that belonged to Lasker, Tarrasch, Lasker, Schlechter, Capablanca. Duchamp was only one of the best French of his time and yet far behind of Alekhine. |
