"And almost, it's like how big can you dream?"

"We see people and we really don't see them."
Leonard says this after an acting exercise. He's had this insight about life while working on his acting for The Tempest. This statement shows how acting can provide real insights into life through the experience of great plays, such as Shakespeare's.
"I'm a Warden who hates prison."
Warden Chandler speaks candidly that his prison is a place where he is providing an education for each inmate to be prepared for their release as soon as that inmate sets foot outside. He hates prison because he doesn't see it as a place of confinement but as a place that allows those imprisoned to grow so they can be free.
