| 43 | "Im looking for quotes with the word "Wolf" or "Wolves" which would be weird in Gor but I already saw one tho I cant find it again. Anny help is appreciated. Thank you I wish you well"
Answer
Hello,
Well, every reference to a wolf is used only in comparison to something
else. In other words, there is no animal on Gor just like a wolf.
Below is every time the words "wolf" and "wolves" appear in the series.
I wish you well,
Fogaban
We saw the fur move, gigantic muscles slowly, evenly, beginning to stir
beneath it. As they had lain it would have been difficult to detect, or
strike, a vital area. Sinuously, slowly, the two creatures separated and
then, slowly, seemed to rise and grow before us. Samos and I stepped back.
Their heads and arms were now visible. The light reflected back, suddenly,
eccentrically, from the two large eyes of one of them. For an instant they
blazed, like red-hot copper disks, like those of a wolf or coyote at the
perimeter of a firelit camp.

But then perhaps that is just as well, for if the human being cannot be a
human being, why should it be anything else? Indeed, there is more than one
way for a race to become extinct. The prehistoric wolf hunts now only in the
corridors of the past. The poodle survives. Does the poodle remember? Does
the wolf live in the poodle yet? I do not know. Would it not be interesting
if the wolf were not dead but sleeping, and returned. Does this fear disturb
the sleep of sheep?
Magicians of Gor Book 25 Page 212
We could read the sullen defiance, the resolve, the capacity to kill in
those eyes, bloodshot with loss of sleep, the desperate carriage of those
gray-clad bodies, hungry and vicious with the strain of street fighting.
There were wolves in the streets of Tharna.
I slowly drew my sword, and thrust the girl to the side of the street
against the wall.
One of the men laughed.
I too smiled for resistance was useless, yet I knew that I would resist,
that I would not be disarmed until I lay dead on the stones of the street.
What of Lara?
What would be her fate at the hands of this pack of maddened, desperate men?
Outlaw of Gor Book 2 Page 220
The urt is a loathsome, horned Gorean rodent; some are quite large, the size
of wolves or ponies, but most are very small, tiny enough to be held in the
palm of one hand.
Nomads of Gor Book 4 Page 125
Like wolves, crying out, shouting, lifting their fists, they ran behind us
as we made our way toward the wharves.
Marauders of Gor Book 9 Page 49
Most lived in ships, the steel wolves of space, their instincts bridled, to
some extent, by Ship Loyalty, Ship Law.
Marauders of Gor Book 9 Page 92
Few animals, which have not been trained, have, or need, stamina. An
exception would be pack hunters, like the wolves or hunting dogs of Earth.
Marauders of Gor Book 9 Page 171
As long as the Kurii remained behind the fifth ring, that determined by the
orbit of the planet called on Earth Jupiter, on Gor, Hersius, after a
legendary hero of Ar, the Priest-Kings were little concerned with them. They
had no objection if such ravening wolves prowled their fences, and scratched
at their very gates.
Tribesmen of Gor Book 10 Page 31
It seemed to me such a ship would be too heavy to manage well, that it would
be clumsy and slow, that it might be better fitted to cargo service when
protected in a convoy than entrusted to confront, elude or brave the lean,
lateen-rigged wolves of gleaming Thassa, hungry for the cargoes of the
ineffectual and weak.
Beasts of Gor Book 12 Page 29
Leopards and wolves are as legitimately ingredient in the order of nature as
spaniels and potatoes.
Savages of Gor Book 17 Page 30
One fears mostly they may begin to believe their own lies. They think they
herd sheep. It is possible, unbeknownst to themselves, they walk with wolves
and lions.
Savages of Gor Book 17 Page 75
One does not survive with wolves by becoming a sheep.
