A chess player went to buy a chess book from a shop. He picked it up, went to the counter and asked, "Excuse me, how much does the book cost?" The lady at the counter replied, "This one is $150." The chess player left the book carefully on the counter, said "J'adoube" and quickly went out of the shop.

Just as a house begins with a foundation, a chess game begins to be built in the opening. The opening is the basis on which the whole chess building leans. A well played opening is a precondition for success in the middle game. By the same token, mistakes in the opening can lead to a very difficult game.
