註釋But never underestimate the powers of the pawn who can promote into a queen and put a kingdom on, or moving humbly up the board, killing on the side, outpriest the priest, and leave the knight without a horse to ride, and trip the elevated rook to bring it crashing down, and nudge the misanthropic queen into oblivion, and stop before great Caesar's throne, a tiny regicide, and watch a cornered monarch fall, and ponder how he died. --from The Powers of the Pawn
