Prison Sentence

Famous quotes containing the words prison and/or sentence:

    The prison is the state writ small.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    Judge Ginsburg’s selection should be a model—chosen on merit and not ideology, despite some naysaying, with little advance publicity. Her treatment could begin to overturn a terrible precedent: that is, that the most terrifying sentence among the accomplished in America has become, “Honey—the White House is on the phone.”
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
