"Remember the law, my black-haired savage- you go to the mines for killing a commoner, you hang for killing a tradesman, and for killing a rich man, you burn!"From "The God in the Bowl"
Page 745. The Complete Chronicles of CONAN.
This started out as an excuse to post some of the funnier brags and threats etc, I found while reading through the CONAN the Barbarian stories, but I think as I get more excited, I'm hoping it will become something academically useful to anyone studying pulp fiction. Right now, I'm posting the funnier and more unexpected quotes, but on my second pass through the stories I will be tackling some meatier issues and themes.
