“Chess holds its master in its own bonds, shackling the mind and brain so that the inner freedom of the very strongest must suffer.” - Albert Einstein

I used to play a lot of chess. More accurately, I lost a lot of chess games. Even though I only played for fun I always felt bad for the opponents I'd beaten, and felt bad when I lost. I don't know what the correlation is between chess and madness, if there even is one. I do know that drawing is a more enjoyable compulsion for me. Was Einstein correct? Maybe he was just a weak chess player!
