| 108 | "this girl humbly begs, for all and any quotes pertaining to treason, deceit lies by a slave"
Answer
Hello,
No, I will not provide ALL instances. Perhaps you did not fully understand
the instructions. However here are a few quotes pertaining to your request.
Too, slave girls seldom lie, for the punishments connected with lying can be
extremely severe. A girl may be thrown alive to sleen for having lied.

"I would have opened the door," she said.
"A slave might be slain for such a lie," I said.

"Surely you do not think him as handsome as I?" I asked.
She looked at me, startled.
"Well?" I asked.
"Master jests," she said.
"Oh?" I said, not altogether pleased.
"Apparently Master wishes to beat his slave," she said, uncertainly.
"Why?" I asked.
"If I tell the truth," she said, "it seems I shall displease my master and
be beaten, and if I should not tell the truth, it seems I must lie to my
master, and then, a lying slave girl, be beaten, or worse!"
Magicians of Gor Book 25 Pages 438 - 439
"Your assertion might be construed as meaning that you had committed some
treason against yourself; or, perhaps, as meaning merely that you had
revealed, or manifested, yourself. Let us consider, first, the matter of
treason. A free woman might, possibly, feel that she had betrayed herself,
in this sense, if she had so yielded to a man as to supply him with some
perhaps subtle hint as to the latency of her slave reflexes. A slave girl,
on the other hand, cannot commit treason against herself in this sense, for
she is a slave. To commit this type of treason one must have a right, say,
to deceive others as to one's sensuality, to conceal one's sexuality, and so
on. The slave girl, an owned animal, under the command of her master, does
not have this sort of right. Indeed, she has no rights. Accordingly, she
cannot commit this sort of treason. Her legal status precludes its
possibility. She may, of course, rationally, fear the consequences of her
responsiveness being discovered, thus increasing, perhaps to her terror, in
a slave culture, her desirability. Similarly she may lie, or attempt to lie,
about her responsiveness, but she is then, of course, merely a lying slave
and, when found out, will be treated accordingly."
"Such treason, then," she said, "can be committed only by a free woman."
"Yes," I said. "It is a luxury not permitted to the slave."
"It is a function only of the free woman's right to lie, and defraud,
others?" she asked.
"Yes," I said. "It is possible, of course, for the slave, subjectively,
psychologically, to feel that she has committed this treason, for she may,
mistakenly, be still regarding herself, implicitly, as a free woman."
"But she cannot, in fact, have committed it, because she is a slave?" asked
the girl.
"Yes," I said.
"I understand, Master," she said, bitterly.
