Famous quotes containing the words prison and/or reform:

    “Stone walls do not a prison make,
    Nor iron bars a cage;
    Minds innocent and quiet take
    That for an hermitage;
    If I have freedom in my love
    And in my soul am free,
    Angels alone, that soar above,
    Enjoy such liberty.”
    —Richard Lovelace (1618–1658)

    “People who love soft methods and hate iniquity forget this,—that reform consists in taking a bone from a dog. Philosophy will not do it.”
    —John Jay Chapman (1862–1933)
