The Shining, 1980

Stuart Ullman: Physically, it’s not a very demanding job. The only thing that can get a bit trying up here during the winter is, uh, a tremendous sense of… isolation.
Jack Torrance: Well, that just happens to be exactly what I’m looking for. I’m outlining a new writing project and, uh, five months of peace is just what I want.
Stuart Ullman: That’s very good, Jack, because, uh, for some people, solitude and… isolation can, of itself, become a problem.
Jack Torrance: Not for me.
Stuart Ullman: How about your wife and son? How do you think they’ll take to it? 
Jack Torrance: They’ll love it.
