Timely Quote

So I turn on the TV at lunch today to catch the very end of Shawshank Redemption.  Here is the first quote I hear (last quote of the movie):

"I find I am so excited I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head. I think it is the excitement only a free man can feel, a free man at the start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain...

I hope I can make it across the  border. I hope to see my friend and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams."
- Red

I have seen that movie many times but that quote never jumped out at me like it did today.  Funny how the same thing will affect you so differently dependant upon your current situation.
