"I went in. It was a very bright, whitewashed room with a skylight for a roof (6)".

"The utter pointlessness of whatever I was doing there seized me by the throat, and all I wanted was to get it over with and get back to my cell and sleep (Page 105)".
"All that heat was pressing down on me and making it hard for me to go on (Page 57)".
"For the third time I've refused to see the chaplain. I don't have anything to say to him; I don't feel like talking, and I'll be seeing him soon enough as it is (Page 108)".
