Alexander Gordon Smith
This place is full of unwritten rules.
Alexander Gordon Smith
Knackered inmates are easier to control than pumped-up ones. And dead inmates are even easier to control, if you follow me.
Alexander Gordon Smith
I'd been so set on an escape that was now impossible, and the only form of freedom left to me was death. It was a terrible kind of freedom—one from misery and pain, yes, but also one from lightness and laughter and life. It was an absence of everything.
Alexander Gordon Smith

Alexander Gordon Smith
But nobody can run from their own demons.
Alexander Gordon Smith
Hope. It is the most important thing in the world. I believe that now more than ever. Hope is what saved my life, hope is what gave me the courage and the strength to carry on. Hope – that unshakeable, golden belief that things can get better.
Alexander Gordon Smith
