What Jack didn't understand was that no matter where he went, the same asshole got off the plane.
In Stephen King's "The Shining," the character Jack struggles with his personal demons and the challenges of his life. His journey reveals that, regardless of his physical location or circumstances, he is unable to escape his inner turmoil. This suggests that the real issues he faces stem from within rather than external factors.
The quote emphasizes the idea that running away from problems is futile when one carries the same flaws and conflicts everywhere. Jack's realization reflects a profound truth about self-awareness and the necessity to confront internal struggles rather than seeking refuge in new environments.
