From Haruki Murakami's Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World:The Colonel nods, then glares again at the board. The tides of fortune have almost swept victory to the old officer's feet. Even so, he does not rush into the fray as he compounds stratagem on strategem. For him, the game is not to defeat the opponent, but to challenge his own abilities.
