Roxanne - A Conversation About Relationships and Expectations
Dixie:
Hey, what about your boyfriend? What was his name?
Roxanne:
Richard.
Dixie:
When's he coming?
Roxanne:
He's not. He's not coming.
Dixie:
What happened?
Roxanne:
We just ran out of gas. I guess I mistook sex for love.
Sandy:
Oh, I did that once. It was great.

The Shining - Confronting Blame and Betrayal
Wendy Torrance: [to Jack; about Danny's bruised neck; Jack shakes his head]
You did this to him, didn't you? You son of a bitch! You did this to him! Didn't you?! How could you?! How could you?!

The Shining - Reflections on an Accident and Change
Wendy Torrance: [nervous laugh]
It was just one of those things, you know. Purely an accident. My husband had, uh, been drinking, and he came home about three hours late. So he wasn't exactly in the greatest mood that night. And, well, Danny had scattered some of his school papers all over the room, and my husband grabbed his arm and pulled him away from them. It's...it's just the sort of thing you do a hundred times with a child, you know, in the park or in the streets. But on this particular occasion, my husband just used too much strength, and he injured Danny's arm. Anyway, something good did come out of it all, because he said "Wendy, I'm never gonna touch another drop. And if I do, you can leave me." And he didn't, and he hasn't had any alcohol in, uh, five months.
