Man has the mind of god, but a body of dust. All humankind is a slave race and was meant to be from the beginning. God does not suffer, he doesn’t feel pain. He is not a courageous god. Human beings can be courageous or cowardly. Neither of these make up any of god’s nature. Will man destroy the earth to move on? Is that his destiny? Ask yourselves a question people, are you humble before God?
But I believe in the one true God. Ezekiel saw the wheel, but what kind of wheel? The cigar-shaped hubcap thing from the sky? Are these the gods that created mankind? People, there are many gods. It is written in the Bible that there are many gods. Does the Bible lie? These gods left before the Bible was written. Would you swear on the Bible? I’d swear on the Bible. A book of treachery and murder and genocide. Of course I’d swear on that, and I’ll tell you why. The false Christianity you subscribe to is nothing more than the cult of the merchant. People, it’s time to evaluate and reflect on your lives. God has turned his back on this nation. Think about it. What did Martin Luther King get out of the whole thing? A boulevard?

ANDY
Ask the warden for funds.
LAUGHTER all around. Andy blinks at them.
BROOKS
Son, I've had six wardens through
here during my tenure, and I have
learned one great immutable truth
of the universe: ain't one of 'em
been born whose asshole don't
pucker up tight as a snare drum
when you ask for funds.
93 -- MAIN BUILDING -- DAY (1949)
DOLLYING Norton and Andy up the hall:
NORTON
Not a dime. My budget's stretched
thin as it is.
ANDY
I see. Perhaps I could write to the
State Senate and request funds
directly from them.
NORTON
Far as them Republican boys in
Augusta are concerned, there's only
three ways to spend the taxpayer's
hard-earned when it come to prisons.
More walls. More bars. More guards.
ANDY
Still, I'd like to try, with your
permission. I'll send a letter a
week. They can't ignore me forever.
NORTON
They sure can, but you write your
letters if it makes you happy. I'll
even mail 'em for you, how's that?
94 -- ANDY'S CELL -- NIGHT (1949)
Andy is on his bunk, writing a letter.
(V.O.)
So Andy started writing a letter a
week, just like he said.
95 -- GUARD DESK/NORTON'S OUTER OFFICE -- DAY (1949)
Andy pops his head in. The GUARD shakes his head.
RED (V.O.)
And just like Norton said, Andy got
no answers. But still he kept on.
96 -- PRISON LIBRARY/ANDY'S OFFICE -- DAY (1950)
Andy is doing taxes. Mert Entwhistle is seated across from
him. Other off-duty guards are waiting their turn.
RED (V.O.)
The following April, Andy did tax
returns for half the guards at
Shawshank.
97 -- PRISON LIBRARY -- ONE YEAR LATER (1951)
Tax time again. Even more guards are waiting.
RED (V.O.)
Year after that, he did them all...
including the warden's.
98 -- BASEBALL DIAMOND -- DAY (1952)
A BATTER in a "Moresby Marauders" baseball uniform WHACKS the
ball high into left field and races for first.
RED (V.O.)
Year after that, they rescheduled
the start of the intramural season
to coincide with tax season...
99 -- PRISON LIBRARY/ANDY'S OFFICE -- DAY (1952)
The Batter sits across from Andy. The line winds out the door.
RED (V.O.)
The guards on the opposing teams
all remembered to bring their W-2's.
ANDY
Moresby Prison issued you that gun,
but you actually had to pay for it?
THE BATTER
Damn right, and the holster too.
ANDY
See, that's all deductible. You get
to write that off.
RED (V.O.)
Yes sir, Andy was a regular H&R
Block. In fact, he got so busy at
tax time, he was allowed a staff.
ANGLE SHIFTS to reveal Red and Brooks doing filing chores.
ANDY
Say Red, could you hand me a stack
of those 1040s?
RED (V.O.)
Got me out of the wood shop a month
out of the year, and that was fine
by me.
100 -- GUARD DESK/NORTON'S OUTER OFFICE -- DAY (1953)
Andy enters and drops a letter on the outgoing stack.
RED (V.O.)
And still he kept sending those
letters...
101 -- ANDY'S CELL -- NIGHT (1953)
Dark. Andy's in his bunk, polishing a four-inch length of
quartz. It's a beautifully-crafted chess piece in the shape of
a horse's head, poise and nobility captured in gleaming stone.
He puts the knight on a chess board by his bed, adding it to
four pieces already there: a king, a queen, and two bishops.
He turns to Rita. Moonlight casts bars across her face.

More where that came from:
All I am is what I'm going after.
M.O. is that they're good.
You see me doin' thrill-seeker liquor store holdups with a "Born to Lose" tattoo on my chest?
Bon voyage, motherfucker. You were good. I'm going to the hotel. Gonna take a shower. Gonna sleep, for a month.

My 9/11 Wargames Analogy
Ace Rothstein: Four reels, sevens across on three $15,000 jackpots. Do you have any idea what the odds are?
Don Ward: Shoot, it's gotta be in the millions, maybe more.
Ace Rothstein: Three fuckin' jackpots in 20 minutes? Why didn't you pull the machines? Why didn't you call me?
Don Ward: Well, it happened so quick, 3 guys won; I didn't have a chance...
Ace Rothstein: [interrupts] You didn't see the scam? You didn't see what was going on?
Don Ward: Well, there's no way to determine that...
Ace Rothstein: Yes there is! An infallible way, they won!
Don Ward: Well, it's a casino! People gotta win sometimes.
Ace Rothstein: [grows more irritated] Ward, you're pissing me off. Now you're insulting my intelligence; what you think I am, a fuckin' idiot? You know goddamn well that someone had to get into those machines and set those fuckin' reels. The probability of one four-reel machine is a million and a half to one; the probability of three machines in a row; it's in the billions! It cannot happen, would not happen, you fuckin' momo! What's the matter with you? Didn't you see you were being set up on the second win?
Don Ward: I really think...
Ace Rothstein: [interrupts] Wait! You didn't see that you were being set up on the second win?
Don Ward: I really think you're overreacting...
Ace Rothstein: Listen, you fuckin' yokel, I've had it with you. I've been carrying your ass in this place ever since I got here. Get your ass and get your things and get out of here.
Don Ward: You're firing me?
Ace Rothstein: I'm firing you. No, I'm not firing, I'm firing you, ya...
Don Ward: You might regret this, Mr. Rothstein.
Ace Rothstein: I'll regret it even more if I keep you on.
Don Ward: This is not the way to treat people.
Ace Rothstein: Listen, if you didn't know you were being scammed you're too fuckin' dumb to keep this job, if you did know, you were in on it. Either way, YOU'RE OUT! Get out. Go on, let's go.
