'The funny thing is - on the outside, I was an honest man, straight as an arrow. I had to come to prison to be a crook.'

'Get busy living, or get busy dying.'

Christ I've seen this film so many times but I'm getting cravings for it again.

"We sat and drank with the sun on our shoulders and felt like free men. Hell, we could have been tarring the roof of one of our own houses. We were the lords of all creation. As for Andy - he spent that break hunkered in the shade, a strange little smile on his face, watching us drink his beer."

"Forty years I been asking permission to piss. I can't squeeze a drop without say-so."

"The first night's the toughest, no doubt about it. They march you in naked as the day you were born, skin burning and half blind from that delousing shit they throw on you, and when they put you in that cell... and those bars slam home... that's when you know it's for real. A whole life blown away in the blink of an eye. Nothing left but all the time in the world to think about it."

"The man likes to play chess; let's get him some rocks."

"I wish I could tell you that Andy fought the good fight, and the Sisters let him be. I wish I could tell you that - but prison is no fairy-tale world. He never said who did it, but we all knew. Things went on like that for awhile - prison life consists of routine, and then more routine. Every so often, Andy would show up with fresh bruises. The Sisters kept at him - sometimes he was able to fight 'em off, sometimes not. And that's how it went for Andy - that was his routine. I do believe those first two years were the worst for him, and I also believe that if things had gone on that way, this place would have got the best of him."


That role was made for Morgan Freeman (and his voice!).

In the book his character is a white Irish ginger guy. I don't disagree with you it's definitely all about the voice.

Yep; they decided to keep the line out of the book in. When Andy Dufreyne asks;
"Why do they call you Red?"

Red then replies;
"I don't know. Maybe it's because I'm Irish."
 
"His name was Bob. Bob had woman tits"

Fight Club

From the movie 'Intermission'

"Jerry Lynch: This is what separates the men from the faggots."

"Sally: Have I got a ronnie?
Mick: A what?
Sally: A ronnie, moustache, like?
Mick: Show.
[pause]
Mick: Well you're no Tom Selleck, but...
Sally: Ah, go fuck yourself. "
 
High Fidelity:

"Should I bolt every time I get that feeling in my gut when I meet someone new??
Well, I've been listening to my gut since I was 14 years old, and frankly speaking, I've come to the conclusion that my guts have shit for brains!!"

Two great films there;
"Broadsword calling Danny Boy"

"Surely you can't be serious?" "I am serious, and don't call me Shirley!"
 
Another from High Fidelity:

"Sometimes I got so bored of trying to touch her breast
that I would try to touch her between her legs.
It was like trying to borrow a dollar, getting turned down,
and asking for 50 grand instead.
