"I spent most of my 10 years in solitary. All my life I’d been angry, mean – on the streets and in prison. When I started this class I was looking for something. I wanted to change. I was tired of hurting myself and other people, but I haven’t just changed over the last two years. I’ve transformed. Ask anybody who knows me." Saul
