   • 1978, Amado V. Hernandez, Mga ibong mandaragit (nobelang sosyo-politiko):

     Datapwa't sahol sa kasanayang mapagitna sa dalawang babaing kapwa umiibig sa kanyá, át: mga sandaling yao'y sabay na nangangailangan at humihingi ng kanyang asik so at panáhon. Hindi bihasa si Mando sa ahedres ng mga puso.

     However, it is a skill to be between two women who both love him, and: those moments that simultaneously need and demand his attention now and then. Mando is not skilled in the chess of hearts.

   • 2022, Manuel Ortega Abis, Bigkis:

     ...na ang lantsa sa kalagitnaang bahagi ng ilog, sa loob-loob ni Mayor Sugay, “Mga mababa na piraso lamang kayo ng ahedres sa labanang ito. Hahahaha! Kung sa palagay ninyo'y kumikilos kayo upang proteksiyunan ang sari-sarili ninyong mga interes, diyan kayo nagkakamali!”

     ...the launch already in the middle part of the river, in the inner thoughts of Mayor Sugay, “You all are just lowly pieces of chess in this fight. Hahahaha! If you all think you were moving to protect your own interests, that's where you are wrong!”
