Bobby Fischer: I've Got A Secret

"It is striking how they chorus 'He was a wonderful kid' when they were talking about him as a man.
"American chess player Jim Sherwin says Fischer was just a 'rough kid' from Brooklyn. Lothar Shmid, the chief arbiter in Reyjavik, tried to understand the American as he tried to understand his children: 'He was not a bad boy'. Boris Spassky saw his as 'always seventeen'. 'He was a boy all the time,' says former captain of the US Olympic chess team, Eliot Hearst."
