What happens to you at the board begins to feel like it's happening to you in person.

Viswanathan Anand

I felt I had I worked hard enough and I felt confident I had done the right kind of work and the right amount of work. But when you talk of preparations, the measure of success is whether it works or not. In that area, I failed completely. I did not stay the course. When you hit the right spot, the sweet spot, it feels great and you feel the preparations have been ideal, but I never got there.

Viswanathan Anand

You would have to sit at the board and sweat and feel the fear of defeat or the nearness of victory to understand what goes through a player's head … If you think it's that easy, switch off the computer and try and figure out a few moves on your own.

Viswanathan Anand

When you lose, you really feel a sense of self … You actually feel that you are being taken apart, rather than just your pieces.
