In any event, I am illiterate in Gorean. - (Smugglers of Gor, Chapter 50, Sentence #404)

Would one teach a sleen, a kaiila, a verr, to read? Similarly, such slaves may be used to carry messages they cannot read. An additional security is that the message is often put in a sealed message capsule tied about the slave's neck, the message being inaccessible to the slave, as she is back-braceleted. A slave may not be taught to read without her master's permission. In any event, I am illiterate in Gorean. Does that not make me more a slave? As I entered the gate, I could see, toward the rear wall of the stockade, something like a barracks or kennel, not unlike my kennel at Shipcamp, and, before it, within the palings, a clearing, which I supposed might function as an exercise yard, an inspection yard, a sales yard, or such. Near the gate, within it, to my right as I entered, was a low, flat, round tank, presumably for water, and a feed trough. I supposed their nearness to the gate was for the convenience of masters, to facilitate their replenishment, supplies being brought from the outside. - (Smugglers of Gor)
