From Stefan Zweig's The Royal Game:
"At once a union of all contradictory concepts: primeval yet ever new; mechanical in operation yet effective only through the imagination; bounded in geometric space though boundless in its combination . . .
Children can learn its simple rules, duffers succumb to its temptation, yet within its immutable tight square it creates a particular species of master not to be compared with any other."
