"Even this foul creature May yet one day prove to be Of use to me."
Which perfectly mirrors the attitude of Nasuada and Eragon et al that Elva is a tool to be used for their benefit, not an innocent child burdened with a terrible curse.
What's worse, Elva's carer/foster mom(?) Doesn't even get a word in edgewise. Compare it to McGonagall in Goblet of Fire: "Potter is a boy, not a piece of meat!"
