What desertion is more swift and sudden, like a mistake in foolery, like a hit by a blind man, when the seeker for honor has not even time to take off the garb of honor before insult seizes him in it?
Apart from his shocking disingenuousness (if there's a more blatant Christ parable than The Shawshank Redemption, I don't know
what it is), Darabont obviously doesn't understand that for the reborn mind, the longer the climb, the better the proselytizing — hence the
desertion, the nepotism, and the DUIs actually augmenting Dubya's holiness instead of casting suspicion on it.
Sometimes, I think, it's good not to know
what is coming — you can go ahead and enjoy your time until the diagnosis, arrest,
desertion, etc..
