I think the reality of prison is you don't get anything unless you want it in there. Whatever happens to you in prison, this is what you asked for. Nothing happens to you if you don't give that vibe.

I'm a historian, and that freaks me out.

I didn't know how to be any other way. I felt like one of those barbarian kings just coming to conquer the Roman Empire.

Discipline makes hard men. Every hard man is capable of being a killer. But every killer is not capable of being a hard man. They can't endure that much. It's all about the endurance. That's why they become killers. Because they can't endure the pain. They need to kill the pain to stop it.

I'm not a good-looking guy. I don't care if my nose gets mashed.

I feel bad about my outlook, how I feel about people and society, and that I'll never be part of society the way I should.
