Boris Spassky, the tenth World Champion, on Lajos Portisch:
"I am very friendly with Lajos and don't feel comfortable writing anything about him [Fischer's rule]. However I can say definitely that he is the most honest person both in life and in chess. I hope Lajos will not mind the following: He is an original strategist and this with his fundamental knowledge of openings creates a very special and unusual weapon, which was very unpleasant for some leading GMs. Several times I was very amused to see how Lajos in the role of a Boa, swallowed a 'rabbit' named Tigran Petrosian."
