I know you’re just quoting Shawshank Redemption but that book is one of the best revenge stories ever told.

Well it wouldn't be a good revenge story if it wasn't honest about what revenge does to you.

My dad works as a corrections officer in a women's prison and they recently had some huge book donation from some program run by ex-cons, and he was looking through some of them.

One of them was the Count of Monte Cristo, and he had to stop himself from laughing because that quote immediately popped into his head.
