May was young and beautiful, we were legally married, but she was caught in the prison of my skin Picture Quote #1

It’s up to us, the people, to break immoral laws, and resist. As soon as the leaders of a country lie to you, they have no authority over you. These maniacs have no authority over us. And they might be able to put our bodies in prison, but they can’t put our spirits in prison Picture Quote #1

There are only two places in the world where time takes precedence over the job to be done. School and prison Picture Quote #1

One of the men attached to the prison was the occasion of great amusement on the part of the prisoners, as well as the spectators, by taking a large lump of ice to show these strangers from the tropics Picture Quote #1

I know what it’s like to be ignored, and I think that is the big problem about the prison system: These people are being thrown away. There is no sense of rehabilitation. In some places, they are trying to do things. But, in most cases, it’s a holding cell Picture Quote #1

I am now going from a prison to a palace: I have finished my work, and am now going to receive my wages Picture Quote #1

You utter a vow or forge a signature and you may find yourself bound for life to a monastery, a woman or prison Picture Quote #1

During my time in prison, I told myself that I wanted to be a part of the solution and not the problem Picture Quote #1

I mean, I was just one of the ones who got exposed, and because of the position I was in, where I was in my life, it went mainstream. A lot of people got out of it after my situation, not because I went to prison but because it was sad for them to see me go through something that was so pointless, that could have been avoided Picture Quote #1

We shall not yield to violence. We shall not be deprived of union freedoms. We shall never agree with sending people to prison for their convictions Picture Quote #1

That’s what prison did for me, it isolated me, you know, it polished me up like a stone Picture Quote #1

The mellow sweetness of pumpkin pie off a prison spoon is something you will never forget Picture Quote #1

I’m a golfaholic, no question about that. Counseling wouldn’t help me. They’d have to put me in prison, and then I’d talk the warden into building a hole or two and teach him how to play Picture Quote #1

I feel that if I ever did adjust to prison, I could by that alone never adjust to society Picture Quote #1

I would prefer to remain in prison for another 20 years than bargain my beliefs for freedom Picture Quote #1

I am against the line and all its consequences: contours, forms, composition. All paintings of whatever sort, figurative or abstract, seem to me like prison windows in which the lines, precisely are the bars Picture Quote #1

The great mystery is not that we should have been thrown down here at random between the profusion of matter and that of the stars; it is that from our very prison we should draw, from our own selves, images powerful enough to deny our own nothingness Picture Quote #1

Why do men carry guns and build prison camps, when the nurturing earth is made for freedom? Picture Quote #1

Two places in this world make it impossible for a man to escape from himself: a battlefield and a prison cell Picture Quote #1

Reality is a narrow little house which becomes a prison to those who can’t get out of it Picture Quote #1

The missionary is no longer a man, a conscience. He is a corpse, in the hands of a confraternity, without family, without love, without any of the sentiments that are dear to us. Emasculated, in a sense, by his vow of chastity, he offers us the distressing spectacle of a man deformed and impotent or engaged in a stupid and useless struggle with the sacred needs of the flesh, a struggle which, seven times out of ten, leads him to sodomy, the gallows, or prison Picture Quote #1

I would like you to understand completely, also emotionally, that I’m a political detainee and will be a political prisoner, that I have nothing now or in the future to be ashamed of in this situation. That, at bottom, I myself have in a certain sense asked for this detention and this sentence, because I’ve always refused to change my opinion, for which I would be willing to give my life and not just remain in prison. That therefore I can only be tranquil and content with myself Picture Quote #1

Great towns are but a large sort of prison to the soul; like cages to birds, or pounds to beasts Picture Quote #1

When I played, the owners had the power. The prisoners are running the prison now, not the warden. The warden is strong and he has say so but, the balance of power is definitely with the players Picture Quote #1

Everything in our background has prepared us to know and resist a prison when the gates begin to close around us... But what if there are no cries of anguish to be heard? Who is prepared to take arms against a sea of amusements? To whom do we complain, and when, and in what tone of voice, when serious discourse dissolves into giggles? What is the antidote to a culture’s being drained by laughter? Picture Quote #1

I was most happy when pen and paper were taken from me and I was forbidden from doing anything. I had no anxiety about doing nothing by my own fault, my conscience was clear, and I was happy. This was when I was in prison Picture Quote #1
