All prisons that have existed in our society to date put people away as no human being should ever be put away.

People may find it more comfortable to listen to us if we equivocate, but in the long run only words that discomfort them are going to change our situation.

Surely all of us are nerved by one another, catch courage from one another.

People who attack others need rationalizations for doing so. We undermine those rationalizations.

The free man must be born before freedom can be won, and the brotherly man must be born before full brotherhood can be won. It will come into being only if we build it out of our very muscle and bone - by trying to act it out.

Our own pulse beats in every stranger's throat.

After the revolution, let us hope, prisons simply would not exist - if by prisons we mean places that could be experienced by the men and women in them at all as every place that goes by that name now is bound to be experienced.
