The defensive power of a pinned piece is only imaginary

Why must I lose to this idiot?

The passed Pawn is a criminal, who should be kept under lock and key. Mild measures, such as police surveillance, are not sufficient

The isolated Pawn casts gloom over the entire chessboard

The beauty of a move lies not in its' appearance but in the thought behind it

Even the laziest King flees wildly in the face of a double check
