I had my last class at ISB today, and one of the most obvious things (that I had taken for granted, having seen it for… forever!) was gone – the class layout. Imagine… the smallest, most inconsequential thing goes – and I’m standing up and paying attention to it. I know that all the people are talking about leaving, but it’s the first signal I have got that the institution knows it too.
RED: Believe what you want. These walls are funny. First you hate ‘em, then you get used to ‘em. After long enough, you get so you depend on ‘em. That’s “institutionalized.”
JIGGER: Shit. I could never get that way.
– The Shawshank Redemption (1994)
In the beginning I would have agreed with Jigger. At the end I know Red is right.
