Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
14	131	Merchants must keep their friends on both sides of the fence, for who knows if Marlenus may not once more sit upon the throne of Ar?" I must have uttered a sound of joy, for Marlenus quickly placed his hand over my mouth.	10
18	13	One of them, one of those pits, must be a blind; one of them must allow an underground access to the city.	10
1	25	Surely I had no publications, and I am confident there must have been several candidates from American universities whose credentials and capacities would have far outshone my own, except for the desiderated British accent.	9
1	58	Somehow my friend had followed me, must be hiding somewhere in the darkness.	9
1	66	At last I realized he must have planted the odd object, left it for me to discover, and was probably on his way home by now or was perhaps camping somewhere nearby.	9
1	113	A thought struck me with sudden swiftness, and I was afraid, but I knew what I must do.	9
1	151	What I must do was fairly obvious—make my way out of the mountains as soon as it was light.	9
1	198	There was a loud noise, but I now think it must have been the sound of my own voice, a sudden frightened shriek for which I shall always bear the shame.	9
1	213	I must never surrender to it again.	9
1	227	I must go in.	9
2	24	My first thought was that this must be the earth and the sun's apparent size an illusion.	9
2	26	It must be the earth.	9
2	33	I felt for a moment as though I must have stumbled, have been dizzy.	9
2	91	"You must be hungry," he said.	9
2	93	"Of course," he said, "but you must eat".	9
2	151	"Yes," said my father at last, "I must speak to you of Priest-Kings".	9
2	177	If one approaches the mountains, one must go on foot.	9
2	205	It crosses your mind that there must exist minds on this world capable of designing such things as, say, rifles and armored vehicles".	9
2	206	"Surely these things must be produced," I urged.	9
2	230	If the planet had been moved at all, and I knew enough to understand that this was empirically possible, it must have been brought into our system from a closer star.	9
2	251	I must have appeared unconvinced.	9
2	259	My astonishment must have been obvious.	9
2	262	"Surely you know," he laughed, "one must distinguish between the data to be interpreted and the interpretation of the data, and one chooses, normally, the interpretation that preserves as much as possible of the old world view, and, in the thinking of the Earth, there is no place for Gor, its true s...	9
2	272	I am glad of this, because I must tell this story.	9
2	273	I have seen things of which I must speak, even if, as it is said here, only to the Towers.	9
3	6	"Why must I, an idiot, be always afflicted with idiots?" Out came the head.	9
3	11	His sleeping mat was unrolled, and his blankets must not have been aired for weeks.	9
3	52	"You must learn," Torm had said matter-of-factly, "the history and legends of Gor, its geography and economics, its social structures and customs, such as the caste system and clan groups, the right of placing the Home Stone, the Places of Sanctuary, when quarter is and is not permitted in war, and ...	9
3	81	I must have appeared annoyed.	9
3	115	This suggested to me that perhaps a well-developed language or mode of conceptual thought existed prior to the primitive hunting groups that must have flourished long ago on the planet.	9
3	176	"You must stand and be slain like a warrior!" Torm tucked a scroll, which he had been pretending to read, under his arm.	9
3	235	We ascended a spiral staircase inside the cylinder and climbed for what must have been dozens of apartment levels.	9
3	247	It is a matter of blood and spirit, of beast and man, of a relation between two beings which must be immediate, intuitive, spontaneous.	9
3	256	Whereas large Earth birds, such as the eagle, must, when taking flight from the ground, begin with a running start, the tarn, with its incredible musculature, aided undoubtedly by the somewhat lighter gravity of Gor, can with a spring and a sudden flurry of its giant wings lift both himself and his ...	9
4	38	I realize now it must have been the thin air and my excitement.	9
4	68	The spirit of the tarn must not be broken, not that of a war tarn.	9
4	78	In your veins must flow the blood of your father, once Ubar, War Chieftain, now Administrator of Ko-ro-ba, this City of Cylinders".	9
4	122	It was impossible to conceive of them as other than they had been, but somewhere they, too, must be awakening painfully, struggling to their feet, needing to clean themselves.	9
5	79	You must have ridden tarns before.	9
5	162	Somehow I must have turned the goad on.	9
5	188	The city of Ar must have contained more than a hundred thousand cylinders, each ablaze with the lights of the Planting Feast.	9
5	191	And now, down there, somewhere in that monstrous blaze of light, was a humble piece of stone, the Home Stone of that great city, and I must seize it.	9
6	29	One of them must be the Home Stone of Ar, but which? How could I tell it from the others, the Home Stones of those cities which had fallen to Ar? Yes! It would be the one that would be red with Ka-la-na, that would be sprinkled with the seeds of grain! I felt the stones in frenzy, but several were d...	9
6	78	In a moment the voice repeated the question, the volume of the sound being slightly increased, and then added, "Are you from the City of Ar?" "No," I said, taking part in what I believed must be some fantastic hallucination in which I madly conversed with myself.	9
6	121	It must have been light for several hours.	9
6	122	"I must return to Ko-ro-ba," I said.	9
6	202	I knew that the insect, who would allow his kind to be exterminated before he would injure any rational creature, must have some plan in mind, or at least I assumed he did.	9
6	215	She shuddered at the memory, and I pitied her for what must have been a horrifying experience, lashed helpless to the saddle of a giant tarn reeling in a death struggle for the mastery of a flock, high over the trees of the swamp forest.	9
7	47	"Why do you wear these silly things?" "The daughter of a Ubar must look down on her subjects," was the simple if extraordinary reply.	9
7	54	"You must take me with you," she said, eyes still downcast.	9
7	58	How could she know that I would not treat her as—according to the rough justice of Gor—she deserved? "You must protect me," she said.	9
7	121	In what seemed like hours but must have been a matter of only a few seconds, it gave, leaping upward out of the mud.	9
7	165	In spite of my hold on her wrist, which must have been tight and painful, the daughter of Marlenus straightened herself before me and said arrogantly, "You tharlarion! Do you think that the daughter of the Ubar of all Gor would submit to such as you?" Cruelly I forced her to her knees before me, the...	9
8	58	"I see that I must teach you to respect an officer," he said, putting his hand between her throat and the chain, drawing her to him.	9
8	107	They must have been as offensive to her nostrils as to mine.	9
8	127	"He must have known it would happen sometime".	9
8	157	"The women of the Walled Gardens know whatever happens on Gor," she replied, and I sensed the intrigue, the spying and treachery that must ferment within the gardens.	9
8	191	"For I am of Ar and must remain your enemy".	9
8	197	"Now you must take me with you or slay me," she said, "and I know you cannot slay me".	9
8	201	"But you must accept it or slay me".	9
9	27	It would be generally assumed that the mysterious tarnsman who had stolen the Home Stone and disappeared with the daughter of the Ubar must long ago have reached whatever unknown city it was to which he had pledged his sword.	9
9	46	If there were refugees, they must have been behind us, and few merchants were approaching Ar.	9
9	66	"We must make a better arrangement than this," she said, pushing away the bracelets.	9
9	142	"If you want her, you must challenge for her and meet me with the weapon of my choice".	9
9	170	"You must kill him," said Talena, struggling.	9
10	51	"She must accompany me," I said.	9
10	140	She glared at me, knowing that she must play her role, at least in the presence of Kazrak.	9
12	77	Oddly enough, I cried out to the stars in joy, still clinging to life, unwilling to lament the fact that my miseries must now be prolonged.	9
13	8	In the far distance I could see the silver wire I knew must be the great Vosk, could see the abrupt shift from the grassy plains to the Margin of Desolation.	9
13	10	To the southwest I could see dimly the evening light reflected from the spires of Ar, and to the north, approaching from the Vosk, I could see the glow from what must be thousands of cooking fires, the night's camp of Pa-Kur.	9
13	37	Some animal must be trying to break the hunting circle.	9
13	52	Perhaps my sudden appearance had disoriented the beast or shaken its marvelous instincts, because it must have uttered its killing cry an instant too soon, or perhaps my muscles and nerves responded to my will more rapidly than it had anticipated.	9
14	10	Die though I must at the hands of this magnificent barbarian, I could feel no ill will toward him.	9
14	23	"You realize clearly that you must die," said Marlenus, not looking at me.	9
14	43	"By what right," I challenged, "is it the sword of Marlenus that must bring justice to Gor?" "You do not understand," said Marlenus.	9
15	29	One aspect of the siege which I knew would exist but which I obviously could not witness would be the sensitive duel of mine and countermine which must be taking place between the camp of Pa-Kur and the city of Ar.	9
15	137	"But position must figure in any adjudication," he said.	9
15	186	How many would rally to the banner of an outlaw? No, the power of the Initiates must first be broken".	9
15	224	"Yes," he said, "she must be removed from the board, but not simply for reasons of strategy.	9
15	257	"I must," said Kazrak.	9
16	63	One thing at least remained to be done: there must be an attempt to rescue Talena.	9
16	91	Tell them they must strike now, and that you come with this message from Tarl Cabot, Warrior of Ko-ro-ba".	9
16	113	I entered the compound, not having a settled plan, but feeling that I must contact Talena.	9
16	143	This must be Talena whom I loved, to whom my life belonged.	9
17	79	My wonder and horror must have been written large on my face, because a tharlarion lancer standing beside me regarded me with amusement.	9
17	96	I must try not to be weak in the way of the things I love.	9
17	104	Still, the days in the tarn cot, gigantic though it was, must have been confining for that Ubar of the Skies, my tarn, and I knew he would relish flight, the chance to pit his wings once again against the fierce winds of Gor.	9
18	6	I knew that I must try to rescue her.	9
18	15	I must find that pit and tunnel, somehow fight my way to his side, enlist his support.	9
18	68	In what seemed like an hour, but must have been no more than three or four minutes, I was behind the camp of Pa-Kur and searching for the dreaded Dar-Kosis Pits, those prisons in which the Afflicted may freely incarcerate themselves and be fed, but from which they are not allowed to depart.	9
18	115	I reasoned that the tarns must be those of the men of Marlenus, left in the tarn cot when he entered the city.	9
18	120	Somehow I must liberate Marlenus.	9
18	122	Therefore, impossible though it might seem, I must devise some plan to scatter or overcome his besiegers.	9
18	125	At the top of a broad series of stairs I saw the door that must lead to the Central Cylinder and noted with satisfaction that its dimensions were large enough to permit the passage of a tarn.	9
19	16	"But I must fight for my city.	9
19	21	I called after him, but his choice, painful though it must have been, had been made.	9
19	97	I knew almost nothing of the fabled Priest-Kings, but I did know that something of the sort must exist, for I had been brought to Gor by an advanced technology, and I knew that some force or power lay in the mysterious Sardar Mountains.	9
19	141	Somewhere within that inhumanly calm exterior there lay a vanity that must be vulnerable.	9
20	72	Who or what are the Priest-Kings that they should so determine the lives of others, that they should rule a planet, terrorize the cities of a world, commit men to the Flame Death, tear lovers from each other's arms? No matter how fearful their power, they must be challenged.	9

Book 2. (73 results) Outlaw of Gor

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
21	237	Upon reflection it seemed clear to me that the chain must, in the end, be a lonely place for a girl, filled with life, knowing that her brand has destined her for love, that each of them must long for a man to care enough for them to buy them, that each must long to follow a man home to his compartm...	10
13	33	Linna, in the dungeon, had told Andreas and me that a man of Tharna must attend the Amusements of Tharna at least four times a year, and that, failing that, he must take part in them himself.	10
22	179	I have wondered sometimes if a man, to be a man, must not master a woman and if a woman to be a woman must not know herself mastered.	10
26	106	I have wondered about the Priest-Kings and their power, their ships and agents, their plans for their world and mine; but most importantly I must learn why my city was destroyed and its people scattered, why it is that no stone may stand upon another stone; and I must learn the fate of my friends, m...	10
1	87	"It must not be too late," he said, as though he had resolved on something, as though by the sheer force of his will he would stop the flow of time, the random track of events.	9
2	52	The myths of these matters have it that while the Home Stone survives, so, too, must the city.	9
3	57	"What do you want?" asked the carrier of wood, who must now have noticed that my shield and accouterments bore no insignia, and would have concluded that I was an outlaw.	9
4	23	I sought a truth I did not know, but knew I must discover—and it lay at the end of this road.	9
4	54	The city must be in darkness.	9
6	67	She must know this, yet she did not seem to care.	9
6	101	Then, to the barbaric, intoxicating music of the flute and drums, she dances for her captor, the bells on her ankles marking each of her movements, the movements of a girl stolen from her home, who must now live to please the bold stranger whose binding fiber she had felt, whose collar she wore.	9
6	162	"I do not know how to act, or what to do—save only that I know I must do whatever you wish".	9
8	3	It must be as I had heard, that the streets of Tharna were open to all men who came in peace, whatever their city.	9
8	6	On the whole they seemed to me a pale and depressed lot, but I was confident they could accomplish what they set their minds to, that they might succeed in tasks which the average Gorean male, with his impatience and lightness of heart, would simply abandon as distasteful or not worth the effort, fo...	9
8	30	The same maiden whom her father must harshly order into the presence of her suitor, the same shy girl who, her parents approvingly note, finds herself delicately unable to raise her eyes in his presence, is probably the same girl who slapped him with a fish yesterday and hurled such a stream of inve...	9
8	115	"But are you not intrigued, Stranger," asked the man, his pale eyes squinting up at me through the folds of the gray robe, "by the offer of a tarn, gold and provisions?" "What must I do to earn this?" I asked.	9
8	119	"What must I do?" I asked.	9
9	34	There must, after all, be provision made for entertaining merchants, delegations from other cities, authorized visitors of one sort or another, and, to be frank, the innkeeper is not always scrupulous about the credentials of his guests, asking few questions if he receives his handful of copper tarn...	9
9	79	I must have seemed strange to them, a scarlet-clad warrior, bearing weapons, suddenly entering, a man from another city unexpectedly in their midst.	9
10	4	Yet the officer must have read defiance in my eyes because he signaled his men, and three spears dropped to threaten my breast.	9
10	17	"You must shackle him!" wheezed Ost.	9
11	213	"A Tatrix must be cruel," said Dorna.	9
12	18	I might crawl to it on my belly, and if my hunger were great enough, I knew I must, but the thought angered me.	9
12	110	I must have looked puzzled.	9
12	127	It was decreed that I must lose my silver mask, don the camisk and be collared, and be sent to the Great Farms to carry water to Field Slaves".	9
13	31	Several were armed warriors, perhaps stationed there to keep the peace, but many must have been common citizens of Tharna.	9
13	101	The hand of the Tatrix must have lifted.	9
14	149	The tarn thrust its head over me and uttered a piercing, fierce scream, a terrible cry of rage that must have shaken the hearts of all within the confines of the arena.	9
14	152	"The bird is chained! Attack! Kill them both!" In that instant the bolt gave, and the nut spun from the shaft! The tarn, as if it understood it was free, shook the hated metal from its leg and lifted its beak to the skies and uttered such a cry as must have been heard by all in Tharna, a cry seldom ...	9
14	206	In one instant that must have been the most terrifying in her life, the Tatrix stood alone, looking up, deserted by all, on the steps before her golden throne in the midst of tumbled cushions and trays of candies and sweetmeats.	9
15	25	Once one has been a tarnsman, it is said, one must return again and again to the giant, savage birds.	9
15	27	One knows that one must master them or be devoured.	9
15	36	How frightful for her must have been those minutes of flight, grasped in the talons, hundreds of feet above the plains of Tharna, not knowing if she might be dropped at any instant, or carried to some ledge to be ripped to pieces by that monstrous beak, those hideous steel-shod talons.	9
15	180	"Warrior," she said, her head lifting piteously, "must you exact so terrible a vengeance on me?" I smiled to myself.	9
15	205	"Then, Warrior, you must bargain with me!" "Not with you!" I cried, attempting to sound dismayed.	9
16	60	I wondered if this could be the girl who had had the harrowing adventure, whose garments were tattered, whose body must still be wretched with pain from its sojourn in the claws of my tarn.	9
17	35	"We must think of escape," I said to Andreas.	9
18	80	"First," I said, "we must have the chamber flooded".	9
18	127	"You must climb," I said.	9
18	163	Above, whoever worked the valve must have grown impatient and thrown it open completely, or perhaps the sudden torrent of water had been intended as a gesture of mercy to drown any survivors quickly.	9
18	175	We worked on them, bending over them in the darkness, I and three men from Port Kar, who understood what must be done.	9
19	50	"You must protect the chains," I said.	9
19	51	"They must not be cut".	9
19	81	"Therefore we must scatter to the forests and the mountains, taking cover where we can.	9
19	82	We must live off the land.	9
19	85	"And so must others!" I cried.	9
19	86	"You must hide by day and move by night.	9
19	87	You must elude your pursuers.	9
19	88	You must carry your freedom to others!" "Are you asking us to become warriors?" cried a voice.	9
19	90	"In this cause," I said, "whether you are of the Caste of Peasants, or Poets, or Metal Workers, or Saddle-Makers, you must be warriors!" "We shall," said Kron of Tharna, his fist holding the great hammer with which he had struck off our shackles.	9
19	149	I must begin my journey to the Sardar Mountains.	9
20	61	One might think that some stability would be provided by the Initiates, who must keep a calendar of their feasts and observances, but the Initiates of one city do not always celebrate the same feast on the same date as do those of another city.	9
21	18	"Tal," I said to two guardsmen who crouched at the side of a fire, playing Stones, a guessing game in which one person must guess whether the number of stones held in the fist of another is odd or even.	9
21	100	Perhaps it is merely a device for merchants who must have some such means for tracing runaway slaves, which would otherwise constitute a costly hazard to their trade.	9
22	115	I must do as he wished.	9
23	44	"The Priest-Kings must wait," I said.	9
23	57	"Must you return me to Tharna?" she asked.	9
23	61	"What must I do?" she asked.	9
23	62	"That you must decide yourself," I said.	9
23	69	"Of course, Warrior," she said, "there must be no tears—for I am Tatrix of Tharna and a Tatrix does not cry".	9
24	98	"But it must be".	9
24	106	"She must die," said Kron.	9
24	112	"She must," I urged.	9
24	175	His mind must have been in tumult, for he could not have expected that the girl produced by the rebels as the true Tatrix would actually be Lara.	9
25	72	The squeal must have carried to the walls of Tharna.	9
25	84	An instant before I knew the blade must fall I released my grip on the animal's neck and slipped under its belly.	9
25	124	Resourceful as she was, even carrying riches as she must be, she was still only a woman and, on Gor, even a silver mask needs the sword of a man to protect her.	9
25	161	Indeed, I myself had business to attend to—an account to settle—only my affairs would lead me to the Sardar Mountains, for the business to which I must attend was with the Priest-Kings of Gor.	9
26	3	Now that it is told I must begin my journey to the Sardar Mountains.	9
26	12	Many have entered the mountains and so many must have learned the secret of the Priest-Kings, though none has returned to tell it.	9
26	44	The marketplace is no longer simply some acres of tile on which business must be dourly conducted.	9
26	60	And too it must be remembered that the men of Tharna who had tasted her women in the revolt now demanded them as their right.	9
26	72	Perhaps Lara understood, as I did not, that women such as silver masks must be taught love, and can learn it only from a master.	9

Book 3. (52 results) Priest-Kings of Gor

Chapter #	Sentence #	Quote	Confidence
1	14	I would stop briefly at the fair, for I must purchase food for the journey into the Sardar and I must entrust a leather-bound package to some member of the Caste of Scribes, a package which contained an account of what had occurred at the city of Tharna in the past months, a short history of events ...	10
2	77	I then understood that the larl I had heard must be a larl of Priest-Kings, for no animal and no man enters or exists in the Sardar without the consent of Priest-Kings, and if it was fed it must be at the hand of Priest-Kings or their servants.	10
5	190	Apparently the rays which must emanate from the sensors, rays not within that portion of the spectrum visible to the human eye, must possess the power to penetrate at least common molecular structures, something like an X ray pierces flesh.	10
15	84	"And there must be a new Mother, and there must be the new First Born.	10
26	239		10
35	76	"Then," he said, "it must be with the Wagon Peoples—or they must know where it is".	10
1	80	Thus one practical effect of the edict of the Priest-Kings is that each Gorean girl must, at least once in her life, leave her walls and take the very serious risk of becoming a slave girl, perhaps the prize of a pirate or outlaw.	9
1	99	He had disobeyed and he had been destroyed, immediately and with grotesque dispatch, but the important thing was, I told myself, that he had disobeyed, that he could disobey, that he had been able to disobey and choose the ignominious death he knew must follow.	9
2	16	The Initiate and I gazed evenly at one another, and then he stepped aside, as he must have done many times.	9
2	66	If there is an optimum configuration for a land predator, I suppose on my old world the palm must go to the Bengal tiger; but on Gor the prize belongs indisputably to the mountain larl; and I cannot but believe that the structural similarities between the two animals, though of different worlds, are...	9
2	98	Last Spear must remain standing, and if the beast still lives, receive its charge with only his drawn sword.	9
2	112	The drop to its base must have been at least a full pasang.	9
2	129	I smiled as I thought of the foolishness of this, for these beasts before me must be the larls of Priest-Kings, guardians of the stronghold of Gor's gods.	9
2	131	At last I came to the bend in the path and braced myself for the sudden bolt about that corner in which I must cry aloud to startle them and in the same instant cast my spear at the nearest larl and set upon the other with my drawn sword.	9
3	8	Their upper canine fangs, like daggers mounted in their jaws, must have been at least a foot in length and extended well below their jaws in the manner of ancient saber-toothed tigers.	9
3	39	Yet I supposed this seemingly impervious wall must house the portal of the Hall of Priest-Kings.	9
4	60	I lifted the spear and my eyes which must have been terrible in the apertures of my helmet were fixed on the heart of the man who sat upon the throne.	9
4	83	"If you want it, you must take it from me".	9
4	149	* * * * I examined the throne and found no trace of a door behind it, but I knew that one must exist.	9
5	130	She saw that she must speak.	9
5	173	Perhaps Parp was the last of the Priest-Kings? Surely it seemed likely that such massive structures as the Hall of Priest-Kings must have been the product of more than one being.	9
5	203	"At one time," she said, "men sought to please me but now it is I who must please them".	9
5	279	"I see," I said, "that I must teach you the meaning of your collar".	9
6	19	If they were indeed Ta grapes I supposed they must have come by galley from Cos to Port Kar, and from Port Kar to the Fair of En'Kara.	9
6	78	Had I now become so much the Gorean warrior that I could disregard the feelings of a fellow creature, in particular those of a girl, who must be protected and cared for? Could it be that I had, as the codes of my caste recommended, not even considered her, but merely regarded her as a rightless anim...	9
6	106	"Until then you must wait".	9
6	108	"But you must," she insisted, standing.	9
6	123	"I must go," I said.	9
6	127	Now you must remain".	9
6	132	"Why must I remain?" I asked.	9
7	6	"I must," I said.	9
8	33	Vika watched me, puzzled, surely convinced that I must have lost my mind.	9
8	111	There was said to be no access to Treve save on tarnback and this would suggest that it must be as much a mountain stronghold as a city.	9
9	31	"You must not," I said.	9
9	33	I wondered how I should speak to her, for I must disabuse her of the illusion that there could be love between us.	9
9	43	"She must have been very beautiful," I said.	9
9	66	"You must understand that.	9
9	79	"He must have loved you very much, after your mother died," I said.	9
9	83	"He must have been a very brave man," I said.	9
9	233	It was not more than a yard wide but its head nearly touched the top of the portal and so I would judge that, standing as it did, it must have been nearly eighteen feet high.	9
9	264	I must forget the treacherous, vicious wench.	9
10	20	One must be careful of what one says in the tunnels of Priest-Kings, for one's words may linger after one, until they sufficiently dissipate to be little more than a meaningless blur of scent.	9
