Book 1. (12 results) Tarnsman of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
9 48 On Gor, as in my native England, one keeps to the left side of the road.
Details
10
9 50 When one keeps to the left side of the road, one's sword arm faces the passing stranger.
Details

9 52 Once, however, Talena dragged me to the side of the road, and, scarcely able to conceal our horror, we watched while a sufferer from the incurable Dar-Kosis disease, bent in his yellow shrouds, hobbled by, periodically clacking that wooden device which warns all within hearing to stand clear from hi...
Details
10
9 57 It gradually became clear that the road was becoming less traveled.
Details
10
9 62 Late in the day we glimpsed a solitary tarnsman high above the road, a lonely image that depressed both myself and Talena.
Details
10
9 85 We had not been on the road long when Talena clutched my arm.
Details
10
9 86 I listened carefully, hearing the distant clank of a shod tharlarion on the road.
Details
10
9 91 The ringing of the tharlarion's shod claws on the road grew louder.
Details
10
9 148 We shoved Talena, who was now frightened, to the side of the road.
Details
10
9 157 He stood proudly in the road, waiting for me to kill him.
Details
10
9 158 I turned and went to Talena, who was standing piteously by the side of the road, waiting to see who it was that would unhood her.
Details
10
18 41 I was not, of course, concerned with facilitating the entry of Pa-Kur's tarnsmen, who, as far as I knew, did not even constitute a portion of the garrison force, but I was concerned with opening the sky over the city in case I, and others, might be able to utilize it as a road to freedom.

Book 2. (37 results) Outlaw of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
3 8 Yet this road, for all the loving craft of the Caste of Builders which had been lavished upon it, was only an unpretentious, subsidiary road, hardly wide enough for two carts to pass.
Details
10
3 33 I had scarcely stepped from the stones of the road when, coming down the road, each step carefully measured and solid, I saw a wide, hunched figure, bending under a gigantic bundle of sticks, strapped to his back by two cords which he held twisted in his fists in front of his body.
Details
10
4 1 The Sleen In the darkness I stumbled on toward the walls of Ko-ro-ba, striking the stones of the road with the butt of my spear, to keep on the road and to drive possible serpents from my path.
Details
10
3 5 The road, like most Gorean roads, was built like a wall in the earth and was intended to last a hundred generations.
Details
10
3 13 Here and there swarms of night insects began to stir, lifting themselves under the leaves of bushes by the road.
Details
10
3 26 One obvious danger lay in the road itself, and the fact that I had no light.
Details
10
3 27 After dark, various serpents seek out the road for its warmth, its stones retaining the sun's heat longer than the surrounding countryside.
Details
10
3 30 Accordingly, in spite of my eagerness to return to Ko-ro-ba, I decided that I would withdraw from the road, wrap myself in my cloak and spend the night in the shelter of some rocks, or perhaps crawl into the tangle of some thorn bushes, where one might sleep in relative security.
Details
10
3 46 I stepped into the road before him.
Details
10
3 48 The shaggy creature, broad, powerful, monstrous in the proud deformation of his craft, stood before me, his feet planted firmly on the road.
Details
10
3 52 He had apparently not expected to meet anyone on this road.
Details
10
3 75 I passed him and continued down the road.
Details
10
3 110 His hands fumbled on the cords and the great bundle of wood loosened and clattered to the stone flooring of the road.
Details
10
3 112 He fell almost on top of the ax which lay on the road.
Details
10
3 114 With the ax in his hands, suddenly he seemed to remember his caste, and he crouched in the road, there in the dusk, a few feet from me, like a gorilla clutching the broad-headed ax, breathing deeply, sucking in the air, mastering his fear.
Details
10
3 138 He threw down the ax, which rang on the stones of the road to Ko-ro-ba.
Details
10
3 139 Zosk sank down and sat cross-legged in the road, his gigantic frame shaken with sobs, his massive head buried in his hands, his thick, guttural voice moaning with distress.
Details
10
3 144 I no longer considered the dangers of the road.
Details
10
4 3 Was I not Tarl of Ko-ro-ba? Was there not such a city? Each pasang stone proclaimed there was—at the end of this road.
Details
10
4 4 Yet why was the road untended? Why had it not been traveled? Why had Zosk of the Caste of Carriers of Wood acted as he had? Why did my shield, my helmet, my accouterments not bear the proud sign of Ko-ro-ba? Once I shouted in pain.
Details
10
4 7 I reached down and jerked the plant from the soil at the side of the road.
Details
10
4 17 With a shudder I hurled the loathsome plant away from the road.
Details
10
4 20 I prepared to set forth on my journey again, grateful that now the three moons of Gor might guide my path on this perilous road.
Details
10
4 23 I sought a truth I did not know, but knew I must discover—and it lay at the end of this road.
Details
10
4 28 My head turned imperceptibly as I scanned the rocks and bushes about the road.
Details
10
4 36 Then I saw it, on its six short legs, undulate across the road, like a furred lizard, its pointed, whiskered snout swaying from side to side testing the wind.
Details
10
4 68 A bolt of lightning shattered on the road not fifty yards before me.
Details
10
4 79 My arm felt wet and trapped, and was raked with fangs and I was spun as the animal squealed with rage and pain and rolled on the road.
Details
10
4 92 The raw meat, hot with the blood of the animal, nourished me, and I crouched beside my kill on the road to Ko-ro-ba, another predator among predators.
Details
10
4 105 The darkness returned, and in the next flash of lightning I examined the blood again, but it was only blood, the blood of a sleen I had killed on the road to Ko-ro-ba.
Details
10
5 2 The road was familiar, the long, relatively steep ascent to the crest of that series of ridges beyond which lay Ko-ro-ba, an ascent that was the bane of strap-masters of caravans, of bearers of burdens like poor Zosk, the woodsman, of all travelers afoot.
Details
10
5 22 He stood with his arms in his robe, tall on the road, watching me.
Details
10
5 27 The thought struck me that I, Tarl of Ko-ro-ba, a mortal, here in the night on this road, might be looking upon the face of a Priest-King.
Details
10
5 31 In pools of cold water lying among the stones of the road I could see the three moons of Gor.
Details
10
5 101 I removed the hated robes of the Initiates from the body of the man and carried the naked body far from the road.
Details
10
19 158 The words of the man of Ar, he who had worn the robes of the Initiates, he who had brought me the message of the Priest-Kings on the road to Ko-ro-ba that violent night months before, rang in my ears, "Throw yourself upon your sword, Tarl of Ko-ro-ba!" But I knew then that I would not throw myself u...

1 102 I am of the Caste of Warriors, and it is in our codes that the only death fit for a man is that in battle, but I can no longer believe that this is true, for the man I met once on the road to Ko-ro-ba died well, and taught me that all wisdom and truth does not lie in my own codes.

16 90 "Yes," said Misk, "as was the man from Ar whom you met on the road long ago near Ko-ro-ba".
Details
10
17 98 It was merely a scene of a road, bordered by some trees, which seemed to slowly approach the lens and then pass behind it.
Details
10
17 107 I wondered of the man through whose eyes I was now seeing, who he was, what he had been, that unknown Implanted One who now walked some lonely road somewhere on Gor, a device of Priest-Kings.
Details
10
17 112 I, in the very Nest of Priest-Kings, was more free than he who walked the stones of some road in the bright sun, somewhere beyond the palisade, far from the mountains of Priest-Kings yet still in the shadow of the Sardar.

3 327 I thrilled to their pursuit, and would elude them! Finally, when I was more than two hundred yards ahead of them, on a cruelly winding road, I switched off my headlights and drove off the road into some trees.
Details
10
3 328 There were many turn-offs on the road, many bends.
Details
10
3 332 I waited for about thirty seconds and then drove back to the road.
Details
10
3 333 I drove lights off for several minutes, following the double yellow line in the center of the road by the moonlight.
Details
10
3 334 Then, when I came to a more traveled highway, a cemented road, well trafficked, I switched on my lights and continued on my way.
Details
10
3 341 I pulled into a small motel, a set of bungalows, set back from the road.
Details
10
3 342 I parked the car behind one of the bungalows, where it could not be seen from the road.
Details
10
3 453 Abruptly, on an impulse, I turned down a small side road, one of dozens that led from the highway.

10
3 460 It did not seem to be a car, but there was something, unmistakably, on the road behind me.

10
3 466 But the light seemed to light the road beneath it, in a yellow, moving pool of illumination that coursed ahead of it.

21 1 The Road I fled along the stone road, eastward, back toward the Viktel Aria.
Details
10
6 179 "What is that other wagon," I asked, "the smaller one, there near the side of the road, which has pulled aside to let the grain wagons pass?" I had been watching it approach.
Details
10
6 181 It was the sort of wagon whose contents are of so little value that it must yield the road in either direction to any vehicle that might care to pass it.
Details
10
6 218 It was now, again, pulling toward the center of the road, the high iron-rimmed wheels trundling on the stone, seeking the long, shallow, shiny, saucerlike ruts, polished in the stone by the earlier passage of countless vehicles.

16 71 "I am to be on the road by dawn".

16 117 Gasping, holding at the grass, inching my way upward, I drew my body from the grass to the road.

16 118 I looked at the road, from my belly.

10
16 121 It was not an ordinary road, I thought.

10
16 123 Gorean vehicles, commonly slow moving, tend to keep to the center of a road, except in passing.

10
16 125 It might be a wagon, or a set of wagons, which had pulled to the side of the road during the storm and now, with the passing of the storm, had resumed its journey.
Details

16 126 It must be near morning, I thought, that they are on the road.
Details
10
16 129 I moaned and slid back from the road, again into the ditch.
Details
10
16 131 I could not see the surface of the road.
Details
10
16 143 I dreaded the climb again to the surface of the road.
Details
10
16 145 I did not understand the need for such a ditch at the side of the road.
Details
10
16 164 At least one other, I could hear him moving about, was above and in front of me, up on the surface of the road.
Details
10
16 228 "What were you doing on this road?" he asked.
Details
10
16 233 I did not even know what towns lay along this road.

16 286 Both of the men then laughed, he standing now before me as I sat on the bank, and he, who was apparently alone, on the surface of the road.
Details
10
16 377 "Why are there such deep ditches at the sides of the road?" I asked.
Details
10
17 194 It was the name I had given to the two young men on the road, and also, if only to be consistent, to the Archon's man.
Details
10
18 99 "North, on the great road," said Speusippus.
Details
10
20 83 The road was fairly well traveled.

10
20 209 What is he doing on this road?" "He picked up freight in Ar," she said.

20 214 "What is he doing on this road?" I asked.

20 217 "What road is this?" I asked.
Details
10
20 218 "It is the road to Argentum," she said.
Details
10
21 2 The road was wet.
Details
10
21 18 I made my way eastward, gasping, and walking and running, on the Argentum road, back toward the Viktel Aria.
Details
10
21 19 I did not think they would expect me to keep to the road.
Details
10
21 27 An additional reason for keeping to the road was that I thought, on the hard, wet surface, it might be more difficult to follow my sign, if sleen were later used.
Details
10
21 51 There was another reason I was retracing our steps on the Argentum road.
Details
10
21 70 Toward morning the rain stopped and I, fearful of discovery as it grew lighter, left the Argentum road.
Details
10
22 18 Although the wagon was normally open when on the road it was now, on this night, on which it had rained off and on, rigged with a temporary, now-partially-rolled-up cover.

10
23 327 The wagon would proceed east on the Argentum road, reach the Viktel Aria, and turn south.

24 29 Only two of the girls in this line had been in the slave wagon on the Argentum road with me, Emily and Luta.

30 234 Frightened by the guardsman's warning, and not wishing to retrace my steps on Emerald I turned to my left, to take a side street to the Wall Road, which I assumed would be safe.

30 235 Surely the Wall Road, which followed the interior circuit of Ar's walls, was only some four or five blocks west.

30 377 There was no opening here to the Wall Road, which must, judging from the proximity of the wall, be only forty or fifty yards behind the building.

Details
10
3 12 Like the road, it seemed empty.
Details
10
3 21 Had they sought to engage, it seemed not improbable that they might meet on the Holmesk road, perhaps in the vicinity of Teslit, approximately halfway between the Vosk and Holmesk.
Details
10
3 22 I looked down on the road.
Details
10
3 29 Once I supposed that that placid road below, that ribbon of dust between the brown shores of grass, had run with blood.
Details
10
3 30 Then once again there was only the silence and the dry road, stretching northward.
Details
10
3 40 I had been in this vicinity, keeping a small, concealed camp, overlooking the road, some five days.
Details
10
3 51 The road below seemed as empty as ever.
Details
10
3 52 I had cut my camp into the side of a small, brush-covered hill, east of the road.

10
3 55 I watched the road.

3 152 I glanced down again, toward the road.

3 183 Then, after a time, I took a small rock and, when the figure had passed, hurled it over and behind the figure, so that it alit across from it, to the west of the road.

10
3 242 Had they been following Marcus, on the road, in the open, I would have seen them.

10
3 243 More importantly, from this height, with the sun on the road, one could see the tracks in the dust.
Details
10
3 254 "Have no fear," called the fellow on the road.
Details
10
3 267 Then I called down to the men on the road.
Details
10
3 294 "Come down!" called the man on the road.
Details
10
3 298 We then, together, slipping a bit, descended from the camp to the road.
Details
10
3 304 Surely he did not seriously think I was going to encumber myself with a pack, not descending the hill, not regaining my balance at its foot, not carrying it to the road.

10

10
39 125 As I stood back, with others, off the road, as they passed, the leader, and the others, I was sure, would not recognize me.
