Why would Morgan Freeman be released on parole the last time?

There is no essential difference between inside and outside the prison. You proceed step by step, and peace of mind becomes a part of society. There is neither too much expectation nor too negative. What should be given to you will naturally be given to you through the hand of fate, and what should be deprived will naturally be taken away by the hand of time. In prisons, we must also find ways to increase the productivity of prisoners, and also find ways to make everyone survive without being too comfortable. If Reid always feels that "the outside world is wonderful." When he left the prison, he found that the outside world was still far from what he imagined, and he was bound to be restless, which was very scary...

So when Rhett realized that "everyone is born without freedom", it was when he passed his parole.

High walls won't really take away freedom, thinking will.

The Shawshank Redemption quotes

  • [after Brooks held a knife to Heywood's throat]

    Andy Dufresne: I just don't understand what happened in there.

    Heywood: Old man's crazy as a rat in a tin shithouse, is what.

    Red: Oh Heywood, that's enough out of you!

    Ernie: I heard he had you shittin' in your pants!

    Heywood: Fuck you!

    Red: Would you knock it off? Brooks ain't no bug. He's just... just institutionalized.

    Heywood: Institutionalized, my ass.

    Red: The man's been in here fifty years, Heywood. Fifty years! This is all he knows. In here, he's an important man. He's an educated man. Outside, he's nothin'! Just a used up con with arthritis in both hands.

  • Red: [narrating, referring to the warden committing suicide] I'd like to think that the last thing that went through his head, other than that bullet, was to wonder how the hell Andy Dufresne ever got the best of him.
