“The only victory that really counts in prison is survival. But survival means more than simply being alive. It's not just the body that must survive a jail term; the spirit and the will and the heart have to make it through as well. If any one of them is broken or destroyed, the man whose living body walks through the gate, at the end of his sentence, can't be said to have survived it. And it's for those small victories of the heart, and the spirit, and the will that we sometimes risk the body that cradles them.” IfsMenWellsHeartMeanSaidEndsSometimesBodySpiritTermWalksAliveRiskHe ManBrokenVictorySurvivalPrisonSentencesDestroyedGatesJailSurvivedCradleSmall Victories Author:Gregory David Roberts
