As if a master painter would never pick up his palette again and that perhaps the games he could have played will never be played now. I view him as a man that was deeply disturbed, with an irritable manner who never was able to deal with society very well. These traits are not uncommon amongst other geniuses, in math, music, etc... I admit that h troubled me with his anti-semitic comments (despite the fact his mother was a jew) and his hatred for America; although his 9 month incarceration over playing in Yugoslavia did no harm to anyone...it was only 20 years earlier when the government, Henry Kissinger, requested he play...it seems that was a poorly played out series of events. Anyway...his loss is still sad too me. His tantrums and personal rials still left me thinking of him as a child in some ways. He left too soon...and now he has done so permanently. DoK

theloneranger 19-Jan-08, 07:16	it's a shame actually that someone who could play the way he could did not understand his place in life...........The universe did not revolve around Bobby Fischer...........some here unfortunately think exactly as he did.........there are bigger things then chess, and there are bigger things then Bobby Fischer. He used his talent to glorify himself, and he wasted his genius.........He will be missed by some, and has already been forgotten by most. A very sad epitaph. Rest in Peace Bobby, because you had none in life, may GOD have mercy upon

saintinsanity 20-Jan-08, 00:16	Quite right TLR He was so brilliant at chess, but he couldn't see where he fit into the world. It's interesting how one can be so smart and so stupid at the same time. That's one of my problems too.
