For some time, destitution has been a harsh reality for asylum seekers, migrants, and refugees who are unable to access mainstream accommodation and support. Delays in the asylum and appeals process can leave them in limbo for years without money, shelter, and advice.

I find Cambridge an asylum, in every sense of the word.

Gigantic sums are now required to maintain prisons and insane asylums and protect the public against gangsters and lunatics. Why do we preserve these useless and harmful beings? The abnormal prevent development of the normal.

Alexis Carrel

We will look at the entire immigration question from the protection of outer borders through the asylum procedures to integration, in particular its efficacy.

I myself spent nine years in an insane asylum and I never had the obsession of suicide, but I know that each conversation with a psychiatrist, every morning at the time of his visit, made me want to hang myself, realizing that I would not be able to cut his throat.

My 'go to' workout is called the Asylum from Beach Body. It's intense training with lots of intervals, core work. It's hard! I travel a lot, so I can take it on the road with me and do it in a hotel room.

What is the most innocent place in any country? Is it not the insane asylum? These people drift through life truly innocent, unable to see into themselves at all.

I would not invest in a Trump hate wall. We don't need to be protected from immigrants that are coming here seeking asylum and refuge.

Ayanna Pressley

Ecuador has never stated flatly that it would give asylum to Edward Snowden.

Barton Gellman

Just previous to the birth of my little son, my mind gave way and my child was born in the asylum for the insane at Stockton, Cal. My boy was buried there.

Belle Boyd

Our first responsibility is to protect the American people and we cannot put on blinders to expect that everyone who seeks asylum does so in good faith.

Bill Shuster

I hope the Icelandic government grants me political asylum.

Bobby Fischer

There is no such thing as a pure introvert or extrovert. Such a person would be in the lunatic asylum.

Carl Jung

We opposed unlimited detention without trial. We stood up for trial by jury as well. And of course we spoke up for asylum seekers and for the most vulnerable in our society.

Charles Kennedy

The Daily Mail can't say 'asylum-seeker' without saying 'foreign criminal' in the same sentence. I'm sure it's practically editorial policy.

Chris Cleave

My own view is that this planet is used as a penal colony, lunatic asylum and dumping ground by a superior civilisation, to get rid of the undesirable and unfit. I can't prove it, but you can't disprove it either.

Christopher Hitchens

You View Used

Many people think it's in bad taste to advertise for an insane asylum... but come on down. We're going crazy.

Colin Mochrie

To anybody who says to me, 'I'm in character,' I say, 'You should be in an asylum.' If you don't know that you're pretending, then you should really seek medical help. I don't have patience for that stuff.

D. B. Sweeney

The asylum process is being completely taken advantage of.

Dan Crenshaw

Age Van Taken

One must be deliberately ignoring reality to pretend that our asylum process is not being abused.

Dan Crenshaw

Used Use Us

Because of a massive backlog of asylum cases and an inability to quickly adjudicate and enforce them, more migrants are making the journey to our border.

Dan Crenshaw

Use Us Them

People are realizing if they jump across our border and they have a child with them they can raise their hand and claim asylum and they will be caught and released into the homeland.

Dan Crenshaw

My heart goes out to children around the world who face terrible poverty. But the United States cannot give asylum to every child in that situation. It would not be sustainable. But we should care for those who are truly in danger.

Dan Lipinski

Where asylum is used as a route to economic migration, it can cause deep resentment in the host community.

David Blunkett

I didn't come into politics to have to deal with the issue of clandestine entry, illegal working, or an asylum system that allows a free run for right-wing bigots.

David Blunkett

I have one thing to say about the mental asylum. I've romanticized two things in my life, and both have fallen short. One is being in a mental asylum. Really, really not as fun as you think it is.

David Harbour

The world sometimes feels like an insane asylum. You can decide whether you want to be an inmate or pick up your visitor's badge. You can be in the world but not engage in the melodrama of it; you can become a spiritual being having a human experience thoroughly and fully.

Deepak Chopra

Deporting asylum seekers back to violence does not reflect the values of our country.

Diane Guerrero

If there were no schools to take the children away from home part of the time, the insane asylums would be filled with mothers.

E. W. Howe

In my early 20s, there was a period when all I owned was about a dozen CDs and a crappy Discman. I'd listen to 'The Man Who Sold The World' album endlessly as I sat on off-peak trains jerking around the Sussex countryside to and from the asylum I worked in.

Frankie Boyle

A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything.

Friedrich Nietzsche

We want to make our own Netherlands, to close our borders and to keep all that money that we give to the foreigners, there is billions, to Africa for development, to Brussels, to Greece, to asylum seekers in the Netherlands, we will stop that and give all that money to the Dutch people living in the Netherlands.

Geert Wilders

An asylum for the sane would be empty in America.

George Bernard Shaw

We will seek... to set up an automatic, obligatory system to redistribute asylum-seekers.

Giuseppe Conte

The point of asylum is not to declare to the world what country you think is the pinnacle of civilization. The point of asylum is to find a country that's both willing and able to protect you from political persecution. In no way is asylum an endorsement of a country's politics, laws, or values.

Glenn Greenwald

The place where optimism most flourishes is the lunatic asylum.

Havelock Ellis

Asylum was good exposure for me and it is still shown quite often on television. I remember the special effects people had fun making a little doll that looked like me - which is not so easy - and it had to move along the floor.

Herbert Lom

I'll work to ensure that every single refugee who seeks asylum in the United States has a fair chance to tell his or her story. This is the least we can offer people fleeing persecution and devastation.

Hillary Clinton

All asylum seekers at our border should remind us that we are a nation of immigrants and that we were once strangers at the border.

Jacky Rosen

South Carolina is too small for a republic and too large for an insane asylum.

James L. Petigru

One of DC's strengths is our archive of storylines ranging from 'Watchmen' to 'Arkham Asylum' to 'Sandman.'

Jim Lee

People who liked the 'Arkham Asylum' video game can Google comics to download.

Jim Lee

We must continue to honor America's commitment to keeping families together and not turn our backs on refugees and asylum seekers.

Jimmy Gomez

'The Asylum Dance' was written after I'd moved back to Scotland and was a response to moving to my old home area of Fife.

John Burnside

Being born into the Royal Family is like being born into a mental asylum. Marrying into it is not something to be taken lightly.

John Lydon

'The Tube' was the first time the plebs had gone on the television. The lunatics taking over the asylum.

Jools Holland

Yesterday's news feeds our fear that our neighbours are more likely than not to be bad eggs: benefit fraudsters, bogus asylum seekers, paedophiles or jihadist terrorists.

Julian Baggini

Well they're very, very genuine concerns at present as to the status of the 800 people who are to be sent by Australia to Malaysia. There's concern about the status of asylum seekers in Malaysia generally, but there's concern about the status of the 800 to be sent.

Julie Bishop

And so I would not enforce a law that would reject people and turn them away without giving them a fair and due process to determine if we should give them asylum and refuge.

Kamala Harris

For some time, destitution has been a harsh reality for asylum seekers, migrants, and refugees who are unable to access mainstream accommodation and support. Delays in the asylum and appeals process can leave them in limbo for years without money, shelter, and advice.

Katharine Viner

The Nauru files lifts the secrecy surrounding Australia's hidden detention regime for asylum seekers through vivid reporting and the words of the guards and officials on the island themselves.
