The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Return of Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs: society should endanger the safety of your journey. At the

"If you stop we shall stop," said Kadour ben Saden. "Until
you are safe with your friends, or the enemy has left your
trail, we shall remain with you. There is nothing more to say."
Tarzan nodded his head. He was a man of few words,
and possibly it was for this reason as much as any that
Kadour ben Saden had taken to him, for if there be one
thing that an Arab despises it is a talkative man.
