  Phony Benoni: The Rogoff Page, World War I:

<"During the progress of the game between Chajes and Lasker the latter remarked to his adversary that it seemed that each was waiting for the other to do something, to which Chajes rather dryly said: 'Don't you see that is my style. I always play chess that way.' Lasker could not help but smile sweetly, exclaiming: 'I wish I could always adopt that sort of style. There seems, after all, something in President Wilson's "watchful waiting policy."'">
