Ive Had Mr. Mozart to keep me company. The music was in here, in my head, and in here in my heart.Thats the beauty of music. They cant get that from you. Havent you ever felt that way about music?...Heres where it makes the most sense.We need it so we dont forget...that there are places in the world that arent made out of stone, that theres, somethin inside that they cant get to, that they cant touch. Its yours. Its hope. Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things and no good thing ever dies.

We sat and drank with the sun on our shoulders and felt like free men. Hell, we could have been tarring the roof of one of our own houses. We were the Lords of all Creation

These walls are funny. First you hate em, then you get used to em. Enough time passes, it gets so you depend on em. Thats institutionalized...They send you here for life and thats exactly what they take, the part that counts anyway.

Hope is a dangerous thing. Hope can drive a man insane. Its got no use on the inside. Better get used to that idea.

Red: That dont make you a murderer. Bad husband, maybe. Feel bad about it if you want to but you didnt pull the trigger.
Andy: No, I didnt. Somebody else did and I wound up in here. Bad luck, I guess.

Some things are best left unsaid. I like to think they were singin about something so beautiful it cant be expressed in words and makes your heart ache because of it

The funny thing is, on the outside ( the prison), I was an honest man, straight as an arrow. I had to come to prison to be a crook.

I tell you, those voices soared.
Higher and farther than anybody in
a gray place dares to dream. It was
like some beautiful bird flapped
into our drab little cage and made
these walls dissolve away...and for
the briefest of moments -- every
last man at Shawshank felt free.

I dont think you ought to be doing this to yourself, Andy. This is just s--tty pipedreams. I mean, Mexico is way the hell down there and youre in here, and thats the way it is.
And For Desserts
If There is somewhere down there you may have lost hope. This movie is for you. This movie gave me goose pimples. What I would really notice is the way , Andy and Red almost gave up hope. I said Almost. Sometimes you cant help noticing that you are a prisoner of your own fears. You cant help relating yourself to the movie.
The theme of the movie is
Fear can hold you Prisoner , Hope can set you free
Note:If you really want to see this movie online visit https://vzavenue.net/~speedtech/index2.html
You need to have real player installed. The picture quality isnt that good, but makes a good viewing.
Note There is another movie on the same grounds called The sharkTank Redemption. This plays more emphasis on being a prisoner to your office desk. In a funny way ofcourse. And Morgan Freemans son , Alfonso Freeman, was among the lead. Watch it if you have the time.
