"Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies." is preserved here as a credited line from Andy Dufresne in The Shawshank Redemption (1994), not as an anonymous standalone saying. The combination of drama storytelling and Tim Robbins's performance is part of what gives the line its staying power, which is why this detail page keeps the movie, character, and actor together in the same context.

This quote is grouped with Hope and Perseverance and tags such as hope, resilience, and freedom so readers can move into connected lines without losing the original source.
