• Cameron Duncan : I didn't kill anybody. I didn't perform a crime. Hell, I've never even drunk a drop of liquor, nor smoked a cigarette, never looked twice at drugs. I'm what you call a 100% straight-shooter, but I'm in here: this hellhole, my personal four-wall prison.

• Cameron Duncan : The worst part about being in here is how time ticks by incessantly, so slowly. Being caged doesn't mean that time stops, for we all live our lives by the clock, and so too do I live mine, but much slower. Seconds feel like minutes, minutes like hours, hours like days, days like months. It's like chasing a rainbow to no resolve; you just chase it.

• Cameron Duncan : I find the best way to pass the time is to sleep, cuz when I sleep, I dream, and when I dream, I can rise above the walls of the prison. I dream of waking up among lilies and getting that feeling in my body that only comes when you're by yourself. I dream of the simple things that possess so much beauty for even the most unfortunate man. I dream of listening to the whisper of my breathing, paying attention to the function more so than at any routine moment. I dream of seeing things so beautiful it hurts to watch them.
