【英文参考】

Well first of all, Andy knows how to make allies to help him achieve his goal.

In the Shawshank prison, everything is clear. If you are not able to make allies, you are in trouble.

Red is a man who knows the best how to get things: from rock hammers, posters of Rita Hayworth, to the pieces of rocks, Red supplies it all.


And these stuff later become Andy's tools to dig the tunnel and escape from the prison.

Two things never happened again after that. The Sisters never laid a finger on Andy again... and Bogs never walked again. They transferred him to a minimum security hospital upstate. To my knowledge, he lived out the rest of his days drinking his food through a straw.

Andy Dufresne: I wouldn't say friends. I'm a convicted murderer who provides sound financial planning - it's a wonderful pet to have.

I remember thinking it would take a man six hundred years to tunnel through the wall with it. Old Andy did it in less than twenty.

Andy crawled to freedom through five hundred yards of shit smelling foulness I can't even imagine, or maybe I just don't want to. Five hundred yards...that's the length of five football fields.

My wife used to say I'm a hard man to know. Like a closed book. Complained about it all the time...She was beautiful. God I loved her. I just didn't know how to show it, that's all. I killed her, Red. I didn't pull the trigger, but I drove her away. And that's why she died, because of me.
