• Of course, no state accepts [that it should call] the people it is imprisoning or detaining for political reasons, political prisoners. They don't call them political prisoners in China, they don't call them political prisoners in Azerbaijan and they don't call them political prisoners in the United States, U.K. or Sweden; it is absolutely intolerable to have that kind of self-perception.

• I just find it absolutely amazing that the narrative about this situation is not put out publically in the press, because it doesn't suit the Western establishment narrative - that yes, the West has political prisoners, it's a reality, it's not just me, there's a bunch of other people as well.

• From long familiarity, we know what honor is. It is what enables the individual to do right in the face of complacency and cowardice. It is what enables the soldier to die alone, the political prisoner to resist, the singer to sing her song, hardly appreciated, on a side street.

• If man is not made in the image of God, nothing then stands in the way of inhumanity. There is no good reason why mankind should be perceived as special. Human life is cheapened. We can see this in many of the major issues being debated in our society today.

• Mi sensación, y es una especie de suposición, es que los periodistas estaban siendo clasificados por el gobierno como delincuentes comunes, y los presos políticos se resistían tanto a serlo. Siempre mantenían [a los otros presos] como asesinos, ladrones, ese tipo de cosas, lo que tiene cierta ironía, supongo. Es algo curioso.

• I would like you to understand completely, also emotionally, that I'm a political detainee and will be a political prisoner, that I have nothing now or in the future to be ashamed of in this situation. That, at bottom, I myself have in a certain sense asked for this detention and this sentence, because I've always refused to change my opinion, for which I would be willing to give my life and not just remain in prison. That therefore I can only be tranquil and content with myself.

• In Vietnam we have no political prisoners. No one is arrested or jailed for his or her speech or point of view. They are put in jail because they violated the law.

• Cantar 'Blowin' in the Wind' en todos los lugares en los que hemos estado adquiere un significado diferente en todas partes. Cuando cantas la frase "¿Cuántos años puede existir un pueblo antes de que se le permita ser libre?" en el patio de una cárcel para presos políticos en El Salvador; si se la has cantado a un grupo de organizadores sindicales, que han estado todos en la cárcel, en Corea del Sur; si se la has cantado a judíos en la Unión Soviética a los que se les ha denegado el visado de salida; si la has cantado con el obispo Tutu protestando contra el apartheid, la canción respira, vive, tiene una vigencia contemporánea.

• All this [Soviet labor camp for political prisoners] brings about one marked change in your physical appearance; by the end of your first year, you will have what are known as 'zek's eyes.' The look in a zek's eyes is impossible to describe, but once encountered, it is never forgotten. When you emerge, your friends, embracing you, will exclaim: 'Your eyes! Your eyes have changed!' And not one of your tormentors will be able to bear your scrutiny. They will turn away from it, like beaten dogs.

• The word 'charismatic' was made for Fidel Castro. You would have liked him, I would have liked him. Then you had to stop and say, 'Just a minute. This is a man who does not believe in freedom of the press...does not believe in democracy as we know democracy, had political prisoners.'
