From: "the fireside book of chess"

Lasker says; only one to two pawn moves in the opening

Tarrasch says; Nothing so easily ruins a position as pawn moves.

Steinitz says; the king and queen pawns are only to be moved early in the game.

But, genius has no restrictions.

Here is Marshall vs Rogosin
