en Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail
  John Donne

en Be your own palace, or the world is your jail.
  John Donne

en Deign on the passing world to turn thine eyes, / And pause awhile from letters, to be wise; / There mark what ills the scholar's life assail, / Toil, envy, want, the patron, and the jail.

en It's a big year for me. We could get promoted, and I could play for Ireland in the World Cup in Germany. I wouldn't have come back to Palace if I didn't feel sure we could get promoted. Palace are better than Championship standard, and now it's up to us to prove that.

en In jail a man has no personality. He is a minor disposal problem and a few entries on reports. Nobody cares who loves or hates him, what he looks like, what he did with his life. Nobody reacts to him unless he gives trouble. Nobody abuses him. All that is asked of him is that he go quietly to the right cell and remain quiet when he gets there. There is nothing to fight against, nothing to be mad at. The jailers are quiet men without animosity or sadism. All this stuff you read about men yelling and screaming, beating against the bars, running spoons along them, guards rushing in with clubs -- all that is for the big house. A good jail is one of the quietest places in the world. Life in jail is in suspension.
  Raymond Chandler
