Life is too short and too precious to waste it living out someone else’s values. We must find our own.

The man who respects a woman does not know what else to do with her.

Slave girls on Gor address all free men as Master, though, of course only one such would be her true Master.

The Gorean is suspicious of the stranger, particularly in the vicinity of his native walls. Indeed, in Gorean the same word is used for both stranger and enemy.

A Gorean slave girl in the presence of a free man or woman always kneels, unless excused from doing so.

Perhaps it should only be added that the Gorean master, though often strict, is seldom cruel. The girl knows, if she pleases him, her lot will be an easy one.

Do not ask the stones or the trees how to live, they can not tell you ; they do not have tongues; do not ask the wise man how to live for, if he knows , he will know he cannot tell you; if you would learn how to live , do not ask the question; its answer is not in the question but in the answer, which is not in words; do not ask how to live, but, instead, proceed to do so.
