State Prison

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or prison:

    For I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
    —Bible: New Testament St. Paul, in Philippians, 4:11.

    Thus I alone, where all my freedom grew,
    In prison pine with bondage and restraint;
    And with remembrance of the greater grief
    To banish the less, I find my chief relief.
