"Barbarian I may be," said Pertinax, "but I am neither fool nor slackard, and I trust, not a coward". - (Mariners of Gor, Chapter 14, Sentence #110)

I rose at the bench and cried, though it might be insubordination, to Pertinax, "Do not unsheathe your blade!" He slammed the blade, half free, back in its sheath, looked at Seremides before him, unflinching, and said, "Welcome aboard, noble Rutilius". Seremides cried out with rage, looked about himself, saw that he might have to deal with twenty angry, violent men who would stand with their captain, and returned his weapon to its housing. "I see," said he, "barbarian, that you are not only a fool and a slackard, but a coward, as well". "Barbarian I may be," said Pertinax, "but I am neither fool nor slackard, and I trust, not a coward". "Tell your men to hold, to remain in place," said Seremides, "and we will make test of the matter". Several others, as well as I, had risen from the benches. "Hold!" said Pertinax. - (Mariners of Gor)
