  The 5 amendments of chess by Danya:<br>- Don&apos;t let your bishop bite on granite<br>- Your pieces don&apos;t have to be always conquering Mount Everest<br>- The threat is stronger than the execution<br>- When your opponent plays passively, STRIKE in the center<br>- No need to reinvent the wheel, just develop your pieces normally

  Danya’s gift; his generosity, his love for teaching and his will to make this most elegant and yet difficult of games accessible to all of us, future masters and long term patzers alike, forever stands as a monument to his humanity, to his charisma, and to his genius. &nbsp;I would rather have ONE Naroditsky in the chess world than a hundred egotistical world champions. &nbsp;We are all of us poorer for his passing, and for what? &nbsp;So an aging tyrant can feel like he is at all relevant to the state of the modern game; a phenomenon that Danya was at the heart and centre of? &nbsp;What a jip! &nbsp;RIP Danya, took me a long time to be able to watch and rewatch these amazing speed run episodes again and honestly I could cry that this was taken from the world and that you are gone, far too soon.

  Danya: &quot;What do we want to achieve here? &nbsp;What&apos;s our goal?&quot;<br>Me: &quot;Usually, not to be humiliated by a mate in one that I totally missed.&quot;
