Prisoners learn how to make do with less, and many of them want to take this ingenuity that they've learned to the outside ... but there's no training, nothing to prepare them for that.
Jeff Smith
Image
Prisoners at the bar, have you anything to say in your defence?
Agatha Christie
Image
I was trying to show colour, but I realized at the private view that the public were prisoners of a preconceived point of view and that, confronted with all these surfaces of different colours, they responded far more to the inter-relationship of the different propositions, they reconstituted the elements of a decorative polychromy.
Yves Klein
Image
Both sides were supposed to release all their prisoners, those were unconditional. There was some prisoner release that took place but it's not been satisfactory.
Warren Christopher

Crime is a social problem, and education is the only real deterrent. Look at all of us in prison we were all truants and dropouts, a failure of the educational system. Look at your truancy problem, and you're looking at your future prisoners. Put the money there.
Wilbert Rideau

I've always been opposed myself to prisoners having the vote.
William Hague
Image
If there is no God, then man and the universe are doomed. Like prisoners condemned to death, we await our unavoidable execution. There is no God, and there is no immortality. And what is the consequence of this? It means that life itself is absurd. It means that the life we have is without ultimate significance, value, or purpose.
William Lane Craig

I believe that free and civilized societies do not hold prisoners incommunicado.
Tom McClintock
Image
We are all prisoners at one time or another in our lives, prisoners to ourselves or to the expectations of those around us. It is a burden that all people endure, that all people despise, and that few people ever learn to escape.
R. A. Salvatore
Image
I will say, the one thing Mexico does well is punish prisoners. They do. They're good at that.
Tucker Carlson
Image
We are the prisoners of ideas.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
Once upon a time there were mass media, and they were wicked, of course, and there was a guilty party. Then there were the virtuous voices that accused the criminals. And Art (ah, what luck!) offered alternatives, for those who were not prisoners to the mass media.
Umberto Eco
Image
Our universities should produce good criticism they do not or, at best, they do so only as federal prisons produce counterfeit money: a few hardened prisoners are more or less surreptitiously continuing their real vocations.
Randall Jarrell
Image
Those who build walls are their own prisoners.
Ursula K. Le Guin
Image
We are products of our past, but we don't have to be prisoners of it.
Rick Warren
Image
If you want prisoners to be tortured, you send them to Syria. If you want someone to disappear – never to see them again – you send them to Egypt.
Robert Baer
Image
Patriotism, in the trenches, was too remote a sentiment, and at once rejected as fit only for civilians, or prisoners. A new arrival who talked patriotism would soon be told to cut it out.
Robert Graves
Image
Mordovian prisoners are afraid of their own shadows. They are completely terrified.
Nadezhda Tolokonnikova
Image
If people around the world knew how well people at Guantanamo Bay are treating prisoners, they would not fall prey to the accusations that some in our Chamber are making. They are all receiving judicial review.
Robin Hayes
Image
I rap for listeners, blunt heads, fly ladies and prisoners
Nas
Image
I began to feel that, in a sense, we were all prisoners of our own history.
Roland Joffe
Image
If you surrender you shall be treated as prisoners of war, but if I haveto storm your works you may expect no quarter.
Nathan Bedford Forrest
Image
We are all prisoners of our thoughts.
Sam Harris
Image
Only free men can negotiate prisoners cannot enter into contracts. Your freedom and mine cannot be separated.
