Famous quotes containing the words prison and/or sentence:
“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)
“A sentence should read as if its author, had he held a plow instead of a pen, could have drawn a furrow deep and straight to the end.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
