One did not have to be useful or whole or even remotely healed as long as they were present, willing to bear themselves - their full, vulnerable selves - to others and allow their history of hurt to be transformed into a wellspring of healing."-Maurice Broaddus, Sweep of Stars (Astra Black, #1)

"All of Muungano’s Territory lit up as a hologram projection, from the Dreaming City to Mars to the mining outpost. No borders, per se, not the way O.E. might define them. Only communities of alliance. This was what they had all fought so hard to forge. They needed a new vocabulary to describe the experiment they embarked on. Empire wasn’t it. A budding cooperative cradled in a sweep of stars."-Maurice Broaddus, Sweep of Stars (Astra Black, #1)
