~If you want a slave, if you want to keep a slave, You must show her your strength as well as your compassion.

~If you would be be loved by her, You must show her your love.

~If you would be adored by her, You must cherish her.

~If you would have her devoted to you, You must inspire her gratitude.

~A slave gives you her heart as well as her body; She gives you her trust as well as her submission.

~Never forget, that what you want from her must be earned.

~Are you worthy of such a slave as you desire?

~Do you treat her with the degree of respect you expect of her? There is such a fine line.

~Love and devotion can turn to anger and resentment if trust is betrayed, If power is abused. If your freedom becomes careless.

~Discipline is not for submissives alone.

~Control of a slave depends on control of yourself.

~Never lose sight of your grave responsibility to one who gives herself over to you!

~Never lapse into callousness or carelessness to one who has dropped her last barriers for your pleasure.

~To go beyond the limits --even one step!-- of what she can handle turns bliss into pain and joy to grudge. To go beyond the limits of consent is not the way of the true Master.

~Petty tyrants can impose their will; the spineless can be intimidated; The defenseless can be brutalized.

~But only a true Dominant, worthy of the name, can push her limits to freely enjoy her pleasures and have a lady return, again and again in deep gratitude for enslaving her.

~Carefully treated, she becomes truly yours and will give you everything.
