There are many more serial killers living outside the prison walls than inside.

Prisons are like the concentration camps of our time. So many go in and never come out, and primarily they're black and Latino.

By and large, prisons are survivable, though hope is indeed what you need least upon entering here; a lump of sugar would be more useful.

Well, I don't think prisons are the answer to everything, obviously.

My dad had a retail business in Leavenworth, Kansas, and there's a whole bunch of prisons there, so it was a backdrop of my childhood, these ominous prisons sitting off the road.

Prisons are built with stones of Law. Brothels with the bricks of religion.

Prisons are fascinating places, especially when the inmates are educated white-collar types.

There's a hierarchy in prison, and I was right at the top.

I've worked in the prison system for five years, and most of those folks in prison didn't have a direction.

I go to correctional facilities and talk to kids there. They have little kids in there who are, like, 12 years old, stealing cars and stuff like that.
