Robin SloanWords are things. You must be careful, careful about calling people out of their names, using racial pejoratives and sexual pejoratives and all that ignorance. Don’t do that. Some day we’ll be able to measure the power of words. I think they are things. They get on the walls. They get in your wallpaper.

For they were alone, and he was one of the seven persons in the world who knew the Archmage's name.
