• Nelson Mandela once remarked that he befriended his jailers, those grim, khaki-clad overseers of his decades of hard labor in a limestone quarry, by "exploiting their good qualities." Asked if he believed all people were kind at their core, he responded, "There is no doubt whatsoever, provided you are able to arouse their inherent goodness." If that sounds like wishful thinking, well, he actually did it.

• When you consider all the writers who never even had a machine. Who would have given an eyeball for a good typewriter. Any typewriter. All the ones who wrote on a matchbook covers. Paper bags. Toilet paper. Who had their writing destroyed by their jailers. Who persisted beyond all odds.

• La muerte natural es independiente de toda razón y es en realidad una muerte irracional, en la que la lamentable sustancia de la cáscara determina cuánto tiempo ha de existir o no el núcleo; en la que, por consiguiente, el carcelero atrofiado, enfermo y de ingenio embotado es el señor, e indica el momento en que morirá su distinguido prisionero.

• In lieu of those checks and balances central to our legal system, non-citizens face an executive that is now investigator, prosecutor, judge, jury and jailer or executioner. In an Orwellian twist, Bush's order calls this Soviet-style abomination 'a full and fair trial.'

• No leader or organization can achieve breakout growth until it treats, "we've always done it this way" as an opportunity to think anew rather than as a reason to stop thinking. Keep in mind, tradition should be a guide, not a jailer.

• A boy is a magical creature you can lock him out of your workshop, but you can't lock him out of your heart. You can get him out of your study, but you can't get him out of your mind. Might as well give up he is your captor, your jailer, your boss and your master a freckled-faced, pint-sized, cat-chasing bundle of noise. But when you come home at night with only the shattered pieces of your hopes and dreams, he can mend them like new with two magic words Hi, Dad!

• Why the jailer does not leave open his prison doors,--why the judge does not dismiss his case,--why the preacher does not dismisshis congregation! It is because they do not obey the hint God gives them, nor accept the pardon which he freely offers to all.

• Church membership was so important that Paul and Silas baptized the Philippian jailer into the membership of Christ's church at midnight with Paul's back still bloody from a beating! He did not even wait till morning! Identification with Christ's church is important; without it, one must be treated 'as a heathen and publican.'

• Yet there were times when he did love her with all the kindness she demanded, and how was she to know what were those times? Alone she raged against his cheerfulness and put herself at the mercy of her own love and longed to be free of it because it made her less than he and dependent on him. But how could she be free of chains she had put upon herself? Her soul was all tempest. The dreams she had once had of her life were dead. She was in prison in the house. And yet who was her jailer except herself?

  Pearl S. Buck

• Cage of freedom, that's our prison; we're the jailer and captive combined Cage of freedom, cast in power; all the trappings of our own design. Blind ambition, steals our reason; we're soon behind those invisible bars On the inside, looking outside; to make it safer we double the guard.

  Jon Anderson

• He afirmado que la evasión es una de las principales funciones de los cuentos de hadas y, puesto que no los desapruebo, es evidente que no acepto el tono de desprecio o lástima con el que ahora se utiliza tan a menudo la palabra "evasión". ¿Por qué habría de despreciarse a un hombre que, encontrándose en prisión, intenta salir y volver a casa? ¿O, si no puede hacerlo, piensa y habla de otros temas que no sean los carceleros y los muros de la prisión?

• El peor crimen cometido por las mentalidades totalitarias es que obligan a sus ciudadanos, incluidas sus víctimas, a convertirse en cómplices de sus crímenes. Bailar con tu carcelero, participar en tu propia ejecución, eso es un acto de la mayor brutalidad.
