1. Thomas Huxley:

   The chess board is the world, the pieces are the phenomena of the universe, the rules of the game are what we call the laws of Nature. The player on the other side is hidden from us. We know that his play is always fair, just, and patient. But we also know, to our cost, that he never overlooks a mistake, or makes the smallest allowance for ignorance.

2. Tawanda Muzinda:

   I can compare myself and relate to Mutesi, the Queen of Katwe when she had international chess tournaments. She was made fun of because of her background, but that didn't stop her from doing what she loved.

3. Maxime Vachier-Lagrave:

   We made the effort to come play because this is a very important tournament, but we knew there was a chance it would not be completed, you just have to remain calm and wait for the world to do better. Then when everything is resolved, we can play chess again.

4. Richard Persichetti:

   It's almost like a chess game.

5. Maia Santos Deguito:

   I am but a pawn in a high-stakes chess game played by giants in international banking and high finance, if this committee is looking for the 'grandmaster,' it is not me.
