Famous quotes containing the words prisoner and/or death:

    “The only conception of freedom I can have is that of the prisoner or the individual in the midst of the State. The only one I know is freedom of thought and action.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    “hung up like a pig on exhibit,
    the delicate wrists,
    the beard drooling blood and vinegar;
    hooked to your own weight,
    jolting toward death under your nameplate.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
