"The King's Speech (movie) & Flying Away"


Just got back from the movie "The King's Speech". It was very good (some profanity), but different from most of today's movies in the way that it had substance and wit to make it very entertaining as opposed to sex, drugs, murder, etc.
 
There was one specific scene where Colin Firth walks into a family room where his wife in the movie and 2 daughters are reading from classic literature.. Though I don't know specifically what story they were reading, Colin interrupts the line his daughter is reading and finishes it: He said, "Oh, to fly away". I feel like there are hidden references in works throughout history reflecting God's master plan including the rapture. When I got home, I googled that line and found two similar citings from the Bible:
 
My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen upon me. Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me. And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest. Psalm 55:4-6
 
and
 
The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. Psalm 90:10
