Andy: No, I didn't. Somebody else did. And I wound up in here. Bad luck, I guess.
Red: Yeah.
Andy: It floats around. It's got to land on somebody. It was my turn, that's all. I was in the path of the tornado. I just didn't expect the storm would last as long as it has. Think you'll ever get out of here?
Red: Me? Yeah. One day when I got a long, white beard and two or three marbles rolling around upstairs, they'll let me out.
Andy: Tell you where I'd go. Zihuatanejo.
Red: Say what?
Andy: Zihuatanejo. It's in Mexico, a little place on the Pacific Ocean. You know what the Mexicans say about the Pacific?
Red: No.
Andy: They say it has no memory. That's where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory. Open up a little hotel right on the beach, buy some worthless old boat and fix it up new. Take my guests out, charter fishing.
Red: Zihuatanejo.
Andy: In a place like that, I could use a man that knows how to get things.
Red: I don't think I could make it on the outside, Andy. I've been in here most of my life. I'm an institutional man now, just like Brooks was.
Andy: You underestimate yourself.
Red: I don't think so. In here I'm the guy who can get things for you, sure, but outside all you need is the Yellow Pages. Hell, I wouldn't even know where to begin. Pacific Ocean? Shit. Scare me to death, something that big.
Andy: Not me. I didn't shoot my wife and I didn't shoot her lover. Whatever mistakes I made, I've paid for them and then some. That hotel, that boat... I don't think that's too much to ask.
Red: You shouldn't be doing this to yourself. This is just shitty pipe dreams. I mean, Mexico is way down there and you're in here and that's the way it is.
Andy: Yeah, right. That's the way it is. It's down there and I'm in here. I guess it comes down to a simple choice, really. Get busy living or get busy dying.
Red: Andy!
Andy: Red, if you ever get out of here, do me a favor.
Red: Sure, Andy, anything.
Andy: There's a big hayfield up near Buxton. You know where Buxton is?
Red: There's a lot of hayfields up there.
Andy: One in particular. It's got a long rock wall with a big oak tree at the north end. It's like something out of a Robert Frost poem. It's where I asked my wife to marry me. We went there for a picnic and made love under the oak and I asked and she said yes. Promise me, Red. If you ever get out, find that spot. At the base of that wall, you'll find a rock that has no earthly business in Maine. Some black volcanic glass. There's something buried under it I want you to have.
Red: What, Andy? What's buried under there?
Andy: You have to pry it up to see.

瑞德曾在安迪越狱后说过这么一段话：“Some birds aren't meant to be caged, their feathers are just too bright and when they fly away the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up does rejoice”。安迪就是这样一只羽翼丰满的鸟，在对妻子的死充满愧疚后，他在监狱中被无辜地关了近20年并受到了非人的折磨。常人无法承受这样的痛苦，但是他做到了，他坚信真正的自由是心灵的自由而不是身体上的自由。可是，在得知自己可以有机会被证明是无辜的而且可以出狱，但却被恶毒的监狱长恶意掐断所有生机后，他知道，争取属于自己的生活的时候来临了。在这一段中，安迪对瑞德畅想着自己的未来，其实已经是做好了离开的准备。一个可以用一把小鹰嘴锤越狱的男人，绝对是一个可怕的人。
