Special Report Transcript Episode 68, Section 3, Time 27:30

I went through that seven months of solitary confinement and all the other months and I’m still living, I’m still OK and I know I can do a lot of things. But if I deny that I’m damaged then I feel I’ll be weak. By acknowledging that I’m damaged, I’m strong. Do you understand that contradiction? // It’s not a contradiction. // By saying yes, I had been hurt, I had been damaged and the damage won’t go away. It won’t heal, but time will make it less and less and less. Because I know, after two years I wouldn’t accept it, but when I accepted it two years later after being released, I noticed I was becoming stronger. I was more confident about myself. I could dance more and really live with that, you know a certain part of my soul gone. It’s like the soul is a round thing and there’s a small part that’s gone and I can survive with 90 percent of my soul. I really can.
