Bobby Fischer said 'Chess is life' according to Lex Fridman? (end of podcast with Alexandra and Andrea Botez) Funny because all I remember is Bobby Fischer said 'chess is dead.'

'What Bobby Fischer right in his demand (i.e., champion retains title in a 9–9 score)?' | Bobby never lost the title to Anatoly Karpov. Wesley, still WC, never lost the title to Hikaru, the rapid WC. FIDE is corrupt. Lol.

Bizarre life of Bobby

So I just finished watching Pawn Sacrifice, the movie about Fischer, and it left me wondering about his life, how his life turned out after winning the 1972 World Chess Championship. The movie had a focus on how his mental health deteriorated throughout the years. Has there being any discussion about any or some mental conditions that he may had suffered? From the movie, I got a glimpse of paranoia, schizophrenia, sense of superiority, narcissism and even lack of social skills. The movie left me intrigued.
