Cooperation. The only thing
I've ever gotten back was defiance!
1:56:03
Not once have you ever shown
a sign of rehabilitation!
1:56:20
- Rehabilitation.
- Yes. Rehabilitation.
1:56:22
I wonder if you know
what the word means.
1:56:27
Do you?
1:56:29
Now don't be insulting.
1:56:35
The unabridged Webster's
International Dictionary
1:56:39
says it comes from the Latin root habilis.
1:56:42
The definition is:
to invest again with dignity.
1:56:47
Do you consider that part of your job, to
give a man back the dignity he once had?
1:56:53
Your only interest is in how he behaves.
1:56:56
You told me that once a long time ago,
and I'll never forget it.
1:57:00
"You'll conform to our ideas
of how you should behave."
1:57:04
And you haven't retreated from
that stand one inch in 35 years.
1:57:09
You want your prisoners to dance
out the gates like puppets on a string,
1:57:12
with rubber-stamp values
impressed by you,
1:57:16
with your sense of conformity,
your sense of behaviour,
1:57:20
even your sense of morality.
1:57:24
That's why you're a failure, Harvey.
1:57:26
You and the whole science of penology.
1:57:30
Because you rob prisoners of
the most important thing in their lives -
1:57:33
their individuality.
1:57:37
On the outside they're lost, automatons,
just going through the motions of living.
1:57:42
But underneath there's a deep,
deep hatred for what you did to them.
1:57:47
First chance they get
to attack society, they do it.
1:57:50
The result? More than half
come back to prison.
1:57:57
Now it's all here in my book.
1:57:59
And I suggest you read it
and you read it thoroughly.
