Checkers Words Of Wisdom

The game of checkers has inspired visual imagery in paintings, illustrations and sculpture, but it has also inspired amateur writers, who are checker players, to express their love of the challenging play through poems and short stories.

But written communication of thoughts on this simple, yet powerful mind sport does not end there as seen in the emblem and slogan of the Missouri Checker Association.

Across the board the checkers run,
And when the game is lost or won;
Look to your foe with smiling face
And warmly offer every grace.
Extend to him your friendly hand,
That even he can understand.
--YOU LOVE THE GAME OF CHECKERS--

Full many a way doth man pursue
To woo the smile doth banish care
To break the weary jaunt of time
And force it yield him better fare
But this I know, among them all
There’s none that can to me afford
The bliss that comes when with a friend
I sit beside my checkerboard.

Of course, discourse on Checkers doesn’t begin and end there, anymore than it did with artistic representations wherein the love of a good round of checkers was clearly evident. Throughout time, famous and not so famous scholars, scientists, writers, checker players, and ordinary souls have voiced their philosophy and thoughts associated with this game.
