Quote #4
ANDY: It's amazing what you can accomplish by mail. Mr. Stevens has a birth certificate, social security card, driver's license. They ever track those accounts, they'll wind up chasing a figment of my imagination.
Ah…Andy's grand plan begins coming into focus. For years he's been setting himself up for a nice little retirement, and Norton's going to have no idea what hit him. At this point though, that's all Red knows. Andy doesn't reveal to him that he intends to withdraw the funds himself after making a daring escape. You always have to keep a little something extra under your hat.
Quote #5
NORTON: Terrible thing. Man that young, less than a year to go, trying to escape. Broke Captain Hadley's heart to shoot him, truly it did.
Andy may have his dirty little secrets, but they're nothing compared to the warden's. He doesn't seem very remorseful about them either. Yeah, Tommy's a criminal, but no way did he deserve the fate that the warden sentenced him to. For the first time in the kid's life he was trying to do the right thing, and he earns himself a couple of bullets through the chest.
Moral of the story? Don't ever stick your neck out for anyone. (Wait a minute, that can't be it…)
