“We may regard the cell quite apart from its familiar morphological aspects, and contemplate its constitution from the purely chemical standpoint. We are obliged to adopt the view, that the protoplasm is equipped with certain atomic groups, whose function especially consists in fixing to themselves food-stuffs, of importance to the cell-life. Adopting the nomenclature of organic chemistry, these groups may be designated side-chains. We may assume that the protoplasm consists of a special executive centre (Leistungs-centrum) in connection with which are nutritive side-chains... The relationship of the corresponding groups, i.e., those of the food-stuff, and those of the cell, must be specific. They must be adapted to one another, as, e.g., male and female screw (Pasteur), or as lock and key (E. Fischer).”
― Paul Ehrlich

“Ivy wird also einundvierzig, und damit ist sie neun Jahre älter als ich. Als sie so alt war wie ich jetzt, war ich zweiundzwanzig. Als sie zweiundzwanzig war, war ich dreizehn. Und in die andere Richtung gedacht: Wenn ich so alt bin wie sie jetzt, wird Ivy fünfzig sein. Man kann sagen, was man will - das ist echt alt.”

“Sie kriegt die Schwangerschaftsübelkeit, ich krieg die WC-Ente - das ist nur fair.”

“Let’s assume the match doesn’t happen. Fischer is disqualified. Who will be the challenger in his place?â€�
Krogius understood.
“Petrosian. The second finalist of the Candidates Matches.�
“Do you think I want to play with Petrosian for the third time, in Moscow, for a few thousand rubles? I’m not just talking about the prize. Who will care about this match?�
Spassky cared not just about the money. He wanted to go down in history. Krogius believed it was a risky game.
“Fischer will realize how much you want this match. Euwe isn’t dumb either. They will think they can get away with a lot with you.�
“And Fischer doesn’t want that money? Not to mention the title of world champion. And Edmondson? Do you think he doesn’t dream of Fischer winning the crown for America? And Max Euwe? This match is a gold mine for FIDE and personally for him. They will push the boundaries, but they won’t cross them because everyone will lose in that case.�
“Only our authorities would be pleased if Fischer didn’t play the match.�
Finally, Krogius understood what the game was about.”

“When Petrosian was preparing for the match against Fischer, especially when analyzing Fischer’s games against Taimanov and Larsen, he came to the conclusion that besides his chess strength, there must be something else that helps Fischer win. Something significant yet elusive, as it remained unnoticed. To perceive it, one needed to look at Fischer’s moves beyond the chessboard.
Petrosian did that and managed to see through the American’s game. Fischer employed a perfidious psychological weapon. By imposing special conditions and demanding privileges, he put his opponent in a worse situation.”
