In fact, There's nothing to be afraid of. Anywhere.
The strongest person is the person who isn't scared to be alone.
It's other people you got to worry about.
Other people. They'll tell you what to do, how to feel.
Before you know it, you're pouring your life out in search of something other people told you to go look for.
Someday, you're gonna be all alone, so you need to figure out how to take care of yourself.

You're stubborn, so you get mad.
When that happens, you can only see what's right in front of you.
Anger is a potent spice.
A pinch wakes you up, too much dulls your senses.

You've got to stay open.
If you get locked into one idea, it's death.

"In a fight, you want the first blow to be the last.
And you better be the one to throw it."

Sometimes, it's much better to take a piece back.

Most players, they lack the courage in their convictions.
The key is to not be tentative.
You have to play with absolute confidence.
I can tell, on the first move, whether someone's got that or they don't just from how they move that first piece.
