Quotes by Maya Darjani  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“We talk about creating an utopia, but we install an empire and we build our success on the back of the exploited.

We talk about equality, but we ignore the power structures that silence the voices of the less powerful.

We talk about meritocracy, but we only promote and care for those from the core planets.

We talk about science and rationality, but we pray to extinct gods and worship mutated humans.”
Maya Darjani, Ancient as the Stars: A Space Opera Adventure
