Sometime ago, I read a quotation somewhere, which belongs to Savielly Tartakower, if I am not mistaken. The one I read mentions chess players, but it refers to people in general, I think:
There are chess players, who play poorly, but who know they play poorly. They are reasonable – help them.
There are chess players, who play poorly, but who don’t know they play poorly. They are ignorant – avoid them.
There are chess players, who play good and who don’t know they play good. They are modest – respect them.
There are chess players, who play good and who know they play good. They are the chess gurus – follow them.
In this case it is not important to label people and to classify them, in my opinion. Much more important it is to take a moment and answer a very simple question – which are you from?[/english]
