--Historic Quotes there from politically- and environmentally-conscious
Kasparov, opinionated provoking Fischer, Anand, Karpov and top
20th-century Orthodox GMs. Offhand the only thing Carlsen says that comes
to mind: "I am not a genius," something Capablanca or Fischer would never
have said.
So to be fair, http://www.chessquotes.com/player-carlsen --Magnus Carlsen.
And http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/m/magnus_carlsen.html --Magnus Carlsen.
Consider the 20 World Chess Champions since 1886, counting the knockout-tournament interregnum 1993-2006. Seven of the 20 have last name starting with 'K' or hard 'C': Capablanca, Karpov, Kasparov, Khalifman, Kasimdzhanov, Kramnik, Carlsen. This time it is Ilyumzhinov versus Kasparov for president of fide, http://www.nytimes.com/2013/10/29/world/europe/former-chess-champion-begins-a-different-pursuit.html?_r=0 after last time Ilyumzhinov versus Karpov. Finally, this http://www.chess.com/news/andrew-paulson-elected-as-president-of-the-english-chess-federation-1607 is first referencing of Agon, whose activity is towards corporate interest, but clear is that Paulson does not favour either Ilyumzhinov or Kasparov.
