Brooks was here!
-
I can’t take care of you no more, Jake. You go on now. You’re free. You’re free.
-
Dear fellas, I can’t believe how fast things move on the outside.
-
I saw an automobile once when I was a kid, but now they’re everywhere.
-
The world went and got itself in a big damn hurry.
-
The parole board(假释委员会) got me into this halfway house called “The Brewer”, and a job, bagging groceries at the Food-Way.”
-
It’s hard work and I try to keep up（跟上）, but my hands hurt most of the time.
-
Make sure your man double-bags. Last time, he didn’t double-bag and the bottom near came out.（底部磨破）
-
Make sure you double-bag like the lady says. Understand?
-
I don’t think this store manager likes me very much.
-
Sometimes after work, I go to the park and feed the birds. I keep thinking Jake might just show up and say “hello”. But he never does. I hope, wherever he is, he’s doing okay and making new friends.（这句话真的泪目了，一无所有）
-
I have trouble sleeping at night. I have bad dreams like I’m falling. I wake up scared. Sometimes it takes me a while to remember where I am.
-
Maybe I should get me a gun（找一把抢） and rob the Food-Way so they’d send me home. I could shoot the manager while I was at it. Sort of like a bonus.（顺便是福利）
-
I guess I’m too old for that sort of nonsense(胡闹) anymore. I don’t like it here. I’m tired of being afraid all the time. I’ve decided… not to stay.
-
I doubt they’ll kick up（引起） any fuss … not for an old crook like me.
-
I doubt they’ll kick up any fuss, not for an old crook like me. P.S. Tell Heywood I’m sorry I put a knife to his throat. No hard feelings(别见怪). Brooks.
-
He should have died in here.
-
What’s all this?
-
You tell me. Fuck stick girl. They’re addressed to you.
-
Dear Mr. Dufresne. In response to your repeated inquiries, the state has allocated the enclosed funds for your library project. This is $ 200.
-
In addition, the library district has generously responded with a charitable donation of used books and sundries. We trust this will fill your needs. We now consider the matter closed. Please stop sending us letters.
-
I want all this cleared up(清理干净) before the warden gets back.
-
Wow! It only took six years. From now on, I’ll write two letters a week instead of one.
-
I believe you’re crazy enough. Now you better get all this stuff out of here like the Captain said. I’ve got to pinch a loaf. When I come back, this is all gone, all right?
- What you did is sort of nonsense.（你那简直就是胡闹。）
????今日地道表达????
