I mean, we've had all these awful pictures from the prison in Iraq and these sort of memos floating around about justifying torture, all this kind of stuff. And it makes you want to take a shower, you know?

Ron Reagan I never told a victim story about my imprisonment. Instead, I told a transformation story - about how prison changed my outlook, about how I saw that communication, truth, and trust are at the heart of power. Fernando Flores I remember the people I knew in prison; I was very fortunate to know them - they came from 1910, 1920, 1930. Gregory Corso I stagnated in prison a long time, and I have wasted most of my life. Gary Gilmore I think for Beecher specifically, Keller was with him when his wife died. Beecher had decided after he first got into prison that he had to shut off everybody. You can't let anybody in and you have to become like them and you have to be threatening and all that. Lee Tergesen I think my attitude to human beings has changed since leaving prison. Jeffrey Archer I think of my brother just out of prison again. He will have spent ten years of the last 30 in prison. Daniel Berrigan I used to think like Moses. That knocked me down for a couple years and put me in prison. Then I start thinking like Job. Job waited and became the wealthiest and richest man ever 'cause he believed in God. James Brown I visited my father for the full ten years that he was in prison, so we already had a deep and loving relationship, and remembered our mother at those times. Sam Sheppard I was separated from my wife at the time. A lot of people think I wrote it about prison. Freddy Fender I will say that the prison regime is rather a good one for a writer because you have plenty of time to write. Mary Archer I won't talk about what it was like in prison, except to say I'm glad I'm out and that I plan never to go back and to pay my taxes every day. Richard Pryor I wrote a million words in the first year, and I could never have done that outside of prison. Jeffrey Archer I'm in prison. But my heart and mind is free. Gangsta haters on the streets are doing more time than me. They need 30 police escorts with them every time they walk down the street. Suge Knight I'm involved in the work around prison rights in general. Angela Davis I'm still friendly with Dean. He still calls me on the phone from time to time. John Dean was fired and later ended up spending some time in prison for his role in Watergate. Fred F. Fielding I've never seen American Idol but I am grateful to them. That show is one of Fox's biggest moneymakers, and some of that money goes to pay for shows like Prison Break. Simon Cowell's been signing my paychecks and for that I say thanks. Wentworth Miller I've wanted somehow to convey to you the sensations - the atmospheric pressure, you might say - of what it is to be seriously a long-term prisoner in an American prison. Jack Henry Abbott If I'd written all the truth I knew for the past ten years, about 600 people - including me - would be rotting in prison cells from Rio to Seattle today. Absolute truth is a very rare and dangerous commodity in the context of professional journalism. Hunter S. Thompson If it is a crime to love the South, its cause and its President, then I am a criminal. I would rather lie down in this prison and die than leave it owing allegiance to a government such as yours. Belle Boyd |
