Andy: My wife used to say l'm a hard man to know Like a closed book. Complained about it all the time. She's beautiful. God, I loved her. But I just didn't know how to show it, that's all. I killed her, Red. I didn't pull the trigger. But f drove her away, That's why she died Because of meJ the way I am.
Red: That doesn't make you a murderer. Bad husband, maybe. Felt bad about it if you want to. But you didn 't pull the trigger,
Andy: No. I didn't. Somebody else did, and I wound up in here Bad luck, I guess.
Red: Yeah.
Andy: It floats around. Has to land on somebody. It was my turn, that's aU I was in the path of the tornado'. I didn't expect the storm would last as long as it has. You think you 'II ever get out of here ?
Red: Me ? Yeah. One day when I got a long, white beard and two or three marbles rotling around upstairs. They 'II let me out.
Andy:Ten you where l'd go. Zihuatanejo.
Red: Zihua...?
Andy: Zihuatanejo. lt's in r,Aexico. A little place on the Pacific Ocean. You know what the Mexicans say about the Pacific ? They say it has no memory. That's where t want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memocY. Op8n up a little hote! right on the beach. Buy some worthless old boat and fix it up new. Take my guests out charter fishing.
Red : Zihuatanejo ?
Aridy: in a ptace like that, f could use a man that knows how to get things.
Red: I don't think I could make it on the outside, Andy. l've been in here most of my life. l'm an institutional man now. Just like Brooks was.
Andy: Well, you underestimate yourself.
Red: I don't think so. In here l'm the guy who can get things for Vou, sure but outside all you need is the Yellow Pages. Hell, I wouldn't even know where to begin. Pacific Ocean ? Shit! About to scare me to death, somethin'that big.
Andy: Not me. I didn't shoot my wife and I didn't shoot her lover, and whatever mistakes I made l've paid for them and then some. That hotel, that boat... I don 't think that's too much to ask.
Red: I don't think you ought'o be doing this to yourself, Andy This is shitty pipB dreamsl I mean Mexico's in the way the hell down there, and you're in hera, and that's the way it is!
Andy: Yeah, right. That's the way it is. lt's down there, and l'm in here. I guess it comes down to a simple choice, really. Get busy living... or get busy dying.
安迪：我妻子说我这个人很难了解，像一本打不开的书。她一直在抱怨。她其实挺漂亮的。我也爱她，但是我就是不知道该怎么表达，就这样。我还是害了她，瑞德，但不是我开的枪，是我把她逼走的，导致了她的遇难。是因为我啊，是我的本性啊。
瑞德：但他们不能因此判你是谋杀啊，最多是个不称职的丈夫。如果你真想杀了她才糟糕。但是你没有开枪。
安迪：是的，我没有开枪。别人开的枪，可结果是我进了监狱。我想可能是运气太差了吧。
瑞德：是啊。
安迪：那晦气到处闲逛，总会落到某人的头上。结果那个人是我，就这样。我在这旋涡的中心，只是没有想到倒霉会持续这么长时间。你有没有想过离开这里的？
瑞德：我？有啊，当我老得满脸胡须、脑子不正常的时候，他们就该让我出去了。
安迪：告诉你我如果出去会去哪里，芝华塔尼欧。
瑞德：芝什么t?
安迪：芝华塔尼欧。在墨西哥。太平洋上的一个小地方。你知道墨西哥人怎么说太平洋吗'他们说那是没有记忆的海洋。我要在那里度过余生。没有回忆的温暖所在。在海边开个小旅馆，买条破船整饬一新。载客出海，包船海钓。
瑞德：芝华塔尼欧？
安迪：你在这种地方也大有可为，因为你有办法搞到各种玩意儿。
瑞德：我在外头吃不开了。我一生大部分时间都耗在这儿了。我现在也被体制化了，跟老布一样。
安迪：别小看自己。
瑞德：我不这么看。我在牢里对你有求必应，但是一岁入社会你想要什么查查电话号码簿就行了。其实我连查都不会啊，太平洋？放屁。那么大个玩意儿得把我吓个半死。
安迪：我可不。我没有杀死我老婆和她的情夫，即使我犯了铡已经偿清了。一间旅馆，一叶扁舟，这一点儿也不过分。
瑞德：你不该这么妄想。这完全是痴人说梦。墨西哥和这里天地北，就这么简单。
安迪：话是如此，天南地北。说到底就是个二选一的问题。要忙于生存，要么赶着去死。
