The Protector Quotes

“Words only hold the power you allow them to.”
― Elin Peer, The Protector

“A name has power – if you tell a wolf it’s a chicken it loses strength.” I laughed then. Long and hard. “How exactly would you tell a wolf that it’s a chicken?” “Bad example,” he admitted. “But everyone knows that words have power; why else would you object to me calling you a girl?” That shut me up. He was right. Being called a girl had felt demeaning. I was a grown woman and equal to a man. A girl equaled a boy.”
― Elin Peer, The Protector

“you’re all a bunch of brainwashed bobbing heads living in fairyland.”
― Elin Peer, The Protector
