“I was watching an HBO special the other night on real-life maximum-security-prison guys. I glanced up, and my poster was in quite a few cells. I was screaming 'Oh, no!'”
Carmen Electra
“In prison, those things withheld from and denied to the prisoner become precisely what he wants most of all.”
Eldridge Cleaver
“When a prisoner sees the door of his dungeon open he dashes for it without stopping to think where he shall get his dinner.”
George Bernard Shaw
“I've been a prisoner and lived in prison for a while; I've been a missionary in China; I've been a vampire and a priest in Poland in World War II. I guess without bragging or being too prideful about it I'm excited when I look back at these things that I've done. I've had lots of wonderful opportunities.”
Willem Dafoe
“Prison officials have been more concerned about sparing the sensitivities of executioners and witnesses than protecting the condemned prisoner from pain. They are more concerned with appearances than with the reality.”
Jamie Fellner
“I learned from my experiences that most of the prisoners went to prison when they were young, drunk and involved in drugs. The sad thing is that when they are given the time to grow up and clean up, they are people just like us.”
Stephen Hartnett
“Whilst we have prisons it matters little who occupies the cells.”
