When you're locked up in here for life, you learn to welcome the little freedoms.

~ Alexander Gordon Smith

You don't have friends in here, you'll soon come to understand that. You get attached to someone, then you'll just lose them. They'll get shanked or they'll jump or they'll be taken one night.

~ Alexander Gordon Smith

Knackered inmates are easier to control than pumped-up ones. And dead inmates are even easier to control, if you follow me.

~ Alexander Gordon Smith

When you're scared - and I mean really scared, not just hearing a noise in the night, or standing toe to toe with someone twice your size who wants to pound you into the earth - it feels as if you're being injected with darkness. It's like black water as cold as ice settling in your body where your blood and marrow used to be, pushing every other feeling out as it fills you from your feet to your scalp. It leaves you with nothing.
