Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
1 15 Like a large number of young men, I found myself passably educated, able to parse a sentence or so in Greek, and familiar enough with the abstractions of philosophy and economics to know that I would not be likely to fit into that world to which they claimed to bear some obscure relation.

2 277 After all, suppose you should accept this tale, should learn of the Counter-Earth and of the Voyages of Acquisition, what could you do?

5 68 Surely there was enough to frighten any girl—the height at which she found herself, the savage mount on which she rode, the prospect of the terrible fate that she believed to await her at our journey's end.

10
6 48 I passed the outermost cylinders of Ar and found myself free in the Gorean night, streaking for Ko-ro-ba.
Details
10
6 70 When I opened my eyes, I found myself partially adhering to a vast network of broad, elastic strands that formed a structure, perhaps a pasang in width, and through which at numerous points projected the monstrous trees of the swamp forest.
Details
10
6 71 I felt the network, or web, tremble, and I struggled to rise, but found myself unable to gain my feet.
Details
10
7 216 I turned slowly, my hands away from my body, and found myself facing two of the foot soldiers of Ar, one of them an officer, the other of common rank.
Details
10
8 80 I fumbled through the officer's pouch and found the key to the manacles.
Details
10
8 87 I dug about in the pouch and found the tiny key to the slave bracelets, which I opened immediately.
Details
10
8 92 Most importantly, I found a compass-chronometer, some rations, two water flasks, bowstrings, binding fiber, and some oil for the mechanism of the crossbow.

12 8 Slowly, with a stylized movement, the helmet was lifted, and I found myself staring up into a gray, lean, cruel face, a face that might have been made of metal.

12 70 I wanted to hate her—so much I wanted to hate her—but I found that I could not.

12 72 In the glade by the swamp forests, in the grain fields of the empire, on the great highway of Ar, in the regal, exotic caravan of Mintar, I had found the woman I loved, a scion of a barbaric race on a remote and unknown world.
Details
10
12 95 The flight of the tarn was serene, and I, grateful to be free at last of the painful Frame of Humiliation, found myself, strangely enough, almost reconciled to the savage but swift fate I knew awaited me.
Details
10
12 122 That he might soon change his mind, particularly if he found nothing on the plains below, was only too obvious.

10
14 56 "And yet," I said, "your sword has not yet found the strength to bring it into being".

14 86 I heard two screams of pain and found that I held the lance.

14 95 As I found a moment's respite, I spun to face him, hoping to have it out with the Ubar himself, but as I did so, the shackles that I had worn struck me forcibly in the face and throat, thrown like a bolo by Marlenus.

17 90 I ran blindly through the now deserted streets of Pa-Kur's camp and found myself at last in the compound of Mintar.
Details
10
18 64 I had managed to bring down the tarn wire of Ar; I had learned that Marlenus still lived and held a portion of the Central Cylinder, and I had found out when and where the execution of Talena was supposed to take place.
Details
10
18 71 When I had completed my search, I had found only one pit deserted.

19 232 Sana stood in the arms of Kazrak, and I knew that the former slave girl had found the man to whom she would give herself, not for a hundred tarns, but for love.

2 30 Indeed, the Gorean spear is such that many warriors scorn lesser missile weapons, such as the longbow or crossbow, both of which are not uncommonly found on Gor.

Details
10
2 57 In the bundle, wrapped inside the tunic and cloak, I found the shoulder belt, sheath and short sword of the Goreans.
Details
10
2 87 I found myself thinking in Gorean, as fluently as though I had not been gone for seven years.
Details
10
3 32 No rations or water flask had been in the leather package found with the weapons.

10
6 35 The women of Ko-ro-ba might even be found sitting unattended in the theater or at the reading of epics.

10
8 25 Wandering in the city, I found myself in Tharna's marketplace.
Details
10
8 63 In spite of this conviction, incomprehensibly, I found myself depressed by Tharna, and wondered if it, in its way, were not somehow, subtly, more barbaric, more harsh, less human than its ruder, less noble, more beautiful sisters.
Details
10
9 33 Inns, as such, are not plentiful on Gor, the hostility of cities being what it is, but usually some can be found in each city.
Details
10
9 74 I descended three steps, and found myself in a warm, dimly lit, low-ceilinged room, cluttered with the low tables common on Gor, around which huddled groups of five or six of the gray-robed men of Tharna.
Details
10
11 15 At last I found myself in a large, vaulted room, lit by torches set in the walls.
Details
10
11 65 I smiled to myself, thinking of the teeth of the urt and the whip, both of which had found my flesh.

10

10
13 84 Though yoked, we faced one another, men, each knowing that he had found a friend on the sands of the arena of Tharna.

14 168 I found that the goad, with this monster at least, did not improve but rather impaired his performance.

10
15 59 The rocky shelf on which we found ourselves was perhaps twenty feet wide and twenty feet deep, about the size that a tarn chooses for nesting.

16 68 Thorn and the warriors leaped forward, and I found myself ringed with their weapons.

10
17 38 He hated me, blaming me somehow for the fact that he found himself in this dire predicament.

10
19 59 I climbed one of the great chains to the huge windlass set above the shaft and found myself among hundreds of cheering men, their chains struck off, their hands boasting weapons even if only a piece of jagged rock or a pair of shackles.
Details
10
19 155 I had seen the power of the Priest-Kings at work—in the mountains of New Hampshire years ago when it was so delicately exercised as to affect the needle of a compass, in the Valley of Ko-ro-ba where I had found a city devastated as casually as one might crush a hill of ants.

20 10 In the office of the Administrator of the Mines, he who once had given the command, "Drown them all," I found a stripped body, slashed almost beyond recognition.

20 16 Though I found it easy to hate him I did not wish him to have died unarmed.
Details
10
20 35 I had sought equipment, but I had found only a scabbard and a damaged helmet, and soon the tarnsmen of Tharna would arrive.
Details
10
20 38 * * * * It was in the vicinity of the Pillar of Exchanges, three days later, that I found the tarn.
Details
10
20 48 Yet I found myself hoping that perhaps she had not been destroyed.
Details
10
21 77 Yet when I arrived I found that she was merely a slave, and that her owner, quite properly from Gor's point of view, was attending to the routine business of marking his property.
Details
10
22 35 I admired her for this, and found her in her hopelessness and defiance very beautiful.
Details
10
22 38 I found her magnificent.

10
23 80 Not more than two hours from the hillock where I had made the decision to return Lara to her native city the tarn had found us, as I had thought he would.
Details
10
23 98 The army of Tharna had struck here and there, at reported hiding places of slaves, but almost invariably they had found nothing.
Details
10
23 228 Thus borne aloft, from street to street, in the midst of joyous shouting, weapons raised on all sides in salute, my ears ringing with the plowing song, once a song of the freeholds of Tharna, long since supplanted by the Great Farms, I found myself brought to that fateful Kal-da shop I remembered so...
Details
10
24 146 And should the warriors have attempted to use the tarns merely to fire down on the crowd, they would suddenly have found the streets deserted, until the shadow of the bird had passed and the rebels could move another hundred yards closer to the palace.
Details
10
24 248 This time the trap did not open and I found myself in a narrow unlit hallway opposite the door to the palace.
Details
10
26 21 When found they were dragged forth into the street, unmasked, cruelly bound together and driven to the palace at the point of weapons, their masks hanging about their necks.
Details
10
26 38 The sound of caravan bells is no longer strange in Tharna and strings of traders have found their way to her gates, to exploit this most surprising of all markets.
Details
10
26 41 I have seen private apartments with tapestries from the mills of Ar upon the walls; and my sandals have sometimes found underfoot richly colored, deeply woven rugs from distant Tor.
Details
10
26 84 And, too, in Tharna would be found the memory of Thorn, a captain.
Details
10
26 126 I have found it at the tables of sword companions and in the clash of the metals of war, in the touch of a girl's lips and hair, in the blood of a sleen, in the sands and chains of Tharna, in the scent of talenders and the hiss of the whip.

Book 3. (84 results) Priest-Kings of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
3 34 The place in which I found myself was considerably wider than the path on which I had trod, for the path had given suddenly onto a fairly large circular area in which I had found the chained larls.

23 54 How was it that she had been captured only so recently by the creature?

3 55 I found it impossible to believe that he could be dangerous, that he could in any way be associated with the dreaded Priest-Kings of Gor.
Details
10
3 57 It was impossible not to be drawn to him; I found that I liked him, though I had just met him; and that I wanted him to like me, and that I felt he did, and that this pleased me.
Details
10
3 93 I found it strange that a Priest-King should fear a larl.

5 250 I bore her no ill will but I found her as irritating as she was beautiful.
Details
10
5 251 I could understand that she, a proud, intelligent girl, could not but resent the indignities of her position, being forced to serve with the full offices of the slave girl whomsoever the Priest-Kings might see fit to send to her chamber, but yet I found in these grievances, great though they might b...

6 11 First she boiled and simmered a kettle of Sullage, a common Gorean soup consisting of three standard ingredients and, as it is said, whatever else may be found, saving only the rocks of the field.

10
6 30 Indeed, when I had returned to Earth from my first trip to Gor I had found that one of the minor inconveniences of my return was reaccustoming myself to the simple business of sitting on chairs.
Details
10
6 92 In one of the chests against the wall I had found, among the garments of various other castes, a warrior's tunic.
Details
10
7 36 Both of the girls had in their way been beautiful but I found Vika superior to both.
Details
10
7 44 I found it difficult to remove from my mind the image of the two Chamber Slaves, and that of Vika, perhaps because the plight of these girls touched my heart, perhaps because each, though differently, was beautiful.
Details
10
7 45 I found myself congratulating myself that I had been taken to the chamber of Vika, for I had thought her the most beautiful.
Details
10
7 59 * * * * After some hours I found myself again in the Hall of Priest-Kings.
Details
10
9 213 I found myself tempted to break her head against the foot of the stone couch, for she was worthless, treacherous, seductive, cruel, vicious, worthy only of the collar, irons and the whip! She shook her head numbly as though denying charges I had not voiced.
Details
10
10 58 I looked about me and found myself on a high, railed platform, overlooking a vast circular artificial canyon, lined with bridges and terraces.
Details
10
10 91 Yet I said to myself the Priest-Kings are intelligent and I found it difficult to believe there could exist an intelligent race without humor.

12 2 I found myself in some sort of plaza, surrounded by the fantastic architecture of the Nest of Priest-Kings.

13 27 It would never occur to them that nature is ultimately simple, and if they found it so they would be rather disappointed.

14 1 The Secret Chamber of Misk The arms of the metal device seized me and I found myself held helplessly by the arms suspended some feet above the floor.

14 9 For an instant I had considered scrambling out of their reach but then I had sensed that there would be no escape in the smooth, closed, carefully prepared room in which I found myself.

10
14 34 In the following journey the cage was successively submerged in various solutions of various temperatures and densities, some of which, perhaps because I was still ill, I found exceedingly noxious.
Details
10
14 80 I was much annoyed when I found out later that the major difference between high-quality fungus and the lower-grade Mul-Fungus was simply the smell.
Details
10
14 108 Washing-booths, incidentally, are found in all Mul-cases and often, for convenience, along the tunnels and in public places, such as plazas, shaving-parlors, pellet-dispensaries, and fungus commissaries.

10
15 14 When I arrived at the bottom of the rope, some forty feet below, I held the torch over my head and found myself in a bare, simple chamber.
Details
10
15 69 "How long," I asked, "does a Priest-King live?" "Long ago," said Misk, "Priest-Kings discovered the secrets of cell replacement without pattern deterioration, and accordingly, unless we meet with injury or accident, we will live until we are found by the Golden Beetle".
Details
10
15 82 "It is well for us to die," said Misk, "for otherwise the Nest would be eternal and the Nest must not be eternal, for how could we love it if it were so?" I could not follow all of what Misk was saying, and I found it hard to take my eyes from the inert figure of the young male Priest-King which lay...
Details
10
16 30 "So much the better," said Misk, "for the Men below the Mountains are then confused and fear us even more—but the members of the Caste of Initiates, we have found, will produce an explanation of why the city was destroyed.
Details
10
16 106 "I then, by means of an Implanted Agent, unconscious of the message being read through him, instructed your father to write the letter which you found in the mountains on your native world".

17 4 In fevered sleep it seemed I saw Sarm's great head with its powerful, laterally moving jaws hovering over me, that I heard the cry of larls and saw the burning pupils of Parp's eyes and his reaching toward me with instruments and a golden net, and I found myself chained to the foot of Vika's couch a...
Details
10
17 61 * * * * I did not ask to see the Mother, for I knew that was forbidden to those of the human kind, but I found Sarm a most attentive and gracious guide, quick to answer my questions and suggest places of interest.
Details

18 1 I Speak with Sarm In the next days, when I could escape from the attentions of Sarm, on occasions when he was undoubtedly drawn elsewhere by his numerous duties and responsibilities, I searched the Nest by myself, on a transportation disk furnished by Sarm, looking for Misk, but I found no trace of...
Details
10
19 55 "By the way," I asked, "how does one kill a Priest-King?" As I asked this I found myself unconsciously measuring my distance from Sarm.
Details
10
19 67 I wished I had had time to investigate certain of Misk's scent-charts, but even if I had had the time, I might not have found helpful charts and, anyway, my translator scanning them could read only labels.
Details
10
20 28 You would be found, of course, but you might survive for a while longer".
Details
10
20 30 Neither of the Muls spoke further but they seemed plunged into a sadness that I found in its way touching, but yet I could scarcely refrain from smiling for they looked so precisely similar.
Details
10
20 46 The room in which we found ourselves was substantially empty, and not too much different in size and shape from the room in which my processing had been initiated.

10
22 78 I found myself pressed up tightly against his thorax.
Details
10
22 142 "Everywhere in the Nest," I said, "you must go everywhere that there is something human to be found".
Details
10
23 19 I found myself almost hoping that she had not, for it would have been more than enough to have heard it following in the tunnels.
Details
10
23 20 Yet I myself I knew would have preferred to see the assailant and so I found myself wishing that this brief, terrible privilege had been Vika of Treve's, for I remembered her as a woman of courage and pride.
Details
10
23 35 I found nothing that could have caused her death unless perhaps a small puncture on her left side, through which some poison might have been injected.
Details
10
23 59 I found I did not even have to stop and search for the small signs I had scratched in the walls of the passages to guide my way for as I ran it seemed I knew each bend and turn of that passageway as though it had suddenly leaped alive flaming in my memory.
Details
10
25 43 When I came to the portal where I had entered I found it closed as I had known it would be and there was, as I knew, no handle or obvious device for opening the door on this side, for no one returned, supposedly, from the tunnels of the Golden Beetle.
Details
10
27 4 The transportation disk which had originally taken me to the chamber where I had found Misk I had taken to the entrance to the tunnels of the Golden Beetle and I thought it well that it should stay there, as if witnessing my entrance and my supposed failure to return.
Details
10
27 5 I was less pleased to have left the translator with the disk but it seemed the better thing to do, for one would not have taken a translator into the tunnels of the Golden Beetle and if it were found missing from the disk it might occasion speculation not that I had returned from the tunnels of the ...
Details
10
27 16 Outside I thrust the red plastic garment I had worn into the first disposal chute I found whence it would be whisked away pneumatically to the distant incinerators that burned somewhere below the Nest.
Details
10
27 24 I found myself hoping that she might not be too distressed by her captivity, and then I scorned myself this weakness and insisted to myself that I welcomed the thought that whatever miseries she endured would be richly deserved.
Details
10
27 49 The colors that are found in the Nest are always in the areas frequented by Muls.
Details
10
27 60 In perhaps two or three Ehn I found one which appeared to be quite suitable.
Details
10
27 62 I quickly retraced my steps to the ventilator shaft, pried open the bottom of the grille, squeezed inside and soon found myself making my way rapidly through the ventilating system in the direction of the Chamber of the Mother.
Details
10
27 66 I followed these scents and soon found myself peering into an immense chamber.
Details
10
27 167 Once again Sarm leaped in, his bladed projection lifted to strike, but this time Misk suddenly straightened himself promptly on the leg which had seemed to fail him and whipped his antennae back behind his head an instant before the stroke of Sarm's blade and when Sarm struck he found his appendage ...
Details
10
27 209 He looked around him at the rows of silent, immobile Priest-Kings and found none to challenge him.
Details
10
27 213 They examined my tunic but found on it no scent-markings.
Details
10
28 65 And there was, and in this case though it had been seared as if an attempt had been made to open it, I found Vika of Treve.
Details
10
28 93 I did not wish to return periodically to the Vivarium to feed her and I supposed, if necessary, some suitable confinement might be found for her near Misk's headquarters.
Details
10
28 225 I would not have believed the ship was possible but I found it difficult to offer the arguments of my old world's physics against the fact of Misk's success.
Details
10
29 62 The ceiling of the complex leapt away from above me and I found myself in the very center of the six ships, surrounded on the four sides, and above and below.
Details
10
29 64 But I was nowhere to be found.
Details
10
29 75 The first ship to near the exit seemed to burst into a cloud of powder but the next four ships, and myself, who had fallen into line with them, pierced the veil of powder and found ourselves coursing through the tunnel back toward Sarm's domain.
Details
10
29 79 Some of the materials flew with such a force that gashes were cut in the obdurate cage plastic and the ship was buffeted and jostled but it cut its way through this jungle of flying parts and found itself again streaming down the tunnel.
Details
10
29 125 The ship was now on its back and I was standing inside on its ceiling and then the ship righted itself and I found the silver tube again.
Details
10
29 149 There, to my pleasure, I found two silver tubes, fully charged.
Details
10
30 183 Let her think over that, I said to myself, think over that—Vika of Treve—Pet Mul! I found myself wanting to take her body in my arms and shatter it to my breast, forcing back her head, taking her lips in the kiss of a master as though I once more owned her.
Details
10
31 14 "I wish to see my Master triumph!" she begged, and that argument seemed to sway golden Sarm, and Vika found herself a member of our party.
Details
10
32 202 Then I found myself in the first Nest Complex, where first I had laid eyes on the Nest of Priest-Kings.
Details
10
32 204 But I found only the dark open shaft.
Details
10
32 211 When the door opened I found myself once more in the Hall of Priest-Kings, though the great dome above it was now broken and portions of it had fallen to the floor of the hall.
