John Coffey: You tell God the Father it was a kindness you done. I knowyou hurtin' and worryin', I can feel it on you, but you oughta quit onit now. Because I want it over and done. I do. I'm tired, boss. Tiredof bein' on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. Tired of notever having me a buddy to be with, or tell me where we's coming from orgoing to, or why. Mostly I'm tired of people being ugly to each other.I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world everyday.There's too much of it. It's like pieces of glass in my head all thetime. Can you understand?
约翰：你告诉上帝是出于善意。我知道你伤心焦虑，我可以感觉到，但你现在必须停止。因为我希望结束。真的，我累了。厌倦在路上，像雨中孤独的麻雀。厌倦没有伙伴陪伴，或者告诉我何去何从，或者为什么。我厌倦了人们丑陋的彼此相待，厌倦了每天感到和听到的伤痛。太多了。它一直就像我脑袋里的玻璃碴。你能理解吗？
Paul Edgecomb: Yes, John. I think I can.
保罗：是的，约翰，我想我能。
