The Shining Quote
Stuart Ullman : I don't suppose they told you anything in Denver about the tragedy we had in the Winter of nineteen seventy.
Jack Torrance : I don't believe they did.
Stuart Ullman : My predecessor in this job left a man named Charles Grady as the Winter caretaker. And he came up here with his wife and two little girls, I think were eight and ten. And he had a good employment record, good references, and from what I've been told he seemed like a completely normal individual. But at some point during the winter, he must have suffered some kind of a complete mental breakdown. He ran a muck and killed his family with an axe. Stacked them neatly in one of the rooms in the West wing and then he, he put both barrels of a shot gun in his mouth.
