“I brought nothing,” Shevek said. Though the suit had been bleached almost to white and bad shrunk a bit, it still fit, and the harsh familiar touch of holum-fiber cloth was pleasant. He felt like himself again. He sat down on the bed facing the doctor and said, “You see, I know you don't take things, as we do. In your world, in Urras, one must buy things. I come to your world, I have no money, I cannot buy. therefore I should bring. But how much can I bring? Clothing, yes, I might bring two suits. But food? How can I bring food enough? I cannot bring, I cannot buy. If I am to be kept alive, you must give it to me. I am an Anarresti, I make the Urrasti behave like Anarresti: to give. not to sell If you like.

“Prvi uslov da vas neko i zavoli, to je svakako da mu diskretno najpre prikrijete vaše najbolje odlike; i to bar za onoliko za koliko oprezno prikrivate vaše mane. Treba naročito prikrivati svoju superiornost iz delikatnosti prema nedostacima drugih. Naročito treba zapamtiti da niko ne voli da se divi drugome većma nego sebi.”
