Andy Dufresne:There are places in this world that aren't made out of
stone, and that there's something inside that they can't get to ,and
that they can't touch. It's yours. Red: What're you talking about?
Andy Dufresne: Hope.
Red: Let me tell you something my friend. Hopeis a dangerous thing.
Hope can drive a man insane.
(レッド:ひとつ言わせてくれ。希望は危険だ。希望は人を狂わせる。)
そしてアンディは牢獄を出た後、手紙でレッドにこう語りかける。
Andy:Remember, Red, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things.
And no good thing ever dies.
(レッド、希望は素晴らしいものだ。おそらくもっとも素晴らしいなものだ。
そして素晴らしいものは死なない。)
そして最後のレッドのナレーションでのセリフ
Red:I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend,
and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my
dreams. I hope.
