One quote Fischer made that was amazing to me was that he couldn't
play blindfold chess. Fischer said he couldn't visualize a board and
pieces in his mind. Hard to believe.

I don't see such a quote on the Chessville site. In any event, while
Fischer was perhaps not as skilled at blindfold chess as, say,
Koltanowski or Alekhine, but I'm sure he could play sans voir and
could visualize positions in his mind. Consider, for example, the time
the power went out in one of his games, as I recall in his Candidates
Match with Petrosian. Despite being in darkness, Fischer was willing
to let his clock continue to run, because he was analyzing in his mind.
