State Prisons

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or prisons:

    I met a traveler from Arkansas
    Who boasted of his state as beautiful
    For diamonds and apples.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Yes, it is the hour at which, long ago, I felt happy. What always awaited me then was a light and dreamless sleep. But something had changed because, with the wait for tomorrow, it is my cell that I have found. As if the familiar paths traced in the summer skies could lead to prisons as well as innocent slumbers.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
