This I believe:
Blaine is a pain, and that is the truth.
All things serve the Beam. And that is the truth.
Eddie and Susannah will be together forever, and that is the truth.
Walter will fail, the Crimson King will fail, the Red will fail. And that is the truth.
The White will come again, and that is the truth.
Roland will find his Tower, and that is the truth.
The Horn of Eld is the key, and that is the truth.

I believe we are walking on the same path of the Beam. I can smell the roses, I
believe the Dark Tower is behind those mountains.

This I believe, being good with a gun might not make you right, but it does give you
the last word.

This I believe, Ka was but a myth of a degenerated culture, much like the demons indrums.

This I believe to be true: Roland loves Susan with all his heart. No
one had ever made him feel the way he felt when he was with her. She
breathed new life into is trouble young heart. Had she lived, they
would have made a great pair. But, alas, her life was surrendered to
the Tower.
For all things serve the Beam.

I Believe that This Quest is apart of me.Not just any old silly quest, but a true quest that takes over your mindand body and puts you the reader right in the middle of The Dark Tower.I have yet to read anything else remotely close to this connection that Ihave and feel with Roland, Susannah, Jake, Eddie, and Oy.
This I Believe...

I believe the Dark Tower is one of the most important things to ever happen to me.It brought me entertainment, friends, new philosophies and peace.

Part 1
This I believe:
There is a force in this world that makes matters happen. Matters that were
destined to happen.
I also believe that the tower has changed my life. I have grown as a person, met
people, seen different parts of the world, and been inspired to write great
musical parodies and other great works of art (such as my drawings) because of my
friends that I have made because of the tower. They have helped me with my grief,
my mania, and everything in between.

Part 2
I am a better person because of the Dark Tower. I am a more rounded, more open,
more liberal and more faithful person because of the Dark Tower. I also like
myself more now than I did before because I have met others who appreciate me for
who I am, and who I can appreciate for who they are. When you have support it is
easy to believe in you.
In conclusion, the Tower has made me believe in me. And that is because Ka willed
it. It is because it was MEANT to be.

*This I believe that we carry a little bit each of Roland, Eddie, Susannah, Jake and Oy in our hearts, souls and minds since reading The Dark Tower series and that now we look at the world around us from a different point of view because of it.*

I believe that had I not read these books, my life would not be as rich as it is.
The lessons , the attitude, the questions it left in my heart are some of the
most important pieces of information one can have access to. In case that
were not enough I have also met a group of people, who have become so
important in my life. I never would have believed this was possible, but
when it comes to The Dark Tower I believe

I believe everyone needs an Oy in life because the value of the love,companionship, and loyalty of an animal is beyond measure. (Sorry, Jon, not thatkind of companionship.) I believe our animal companions reflect the best andworst parts of us and, in doing so, help us understand ourselves better. How wechoose to act on that understanding is another matter.

I believe that while the Dark Tower is a great tale of a noble quest, the most important truth of the series is that it is the journey, and those who share it with us, that matters most in life, no matter the quest.

I believe that the Revised Gunslinger preempts the original, that's why
Stephen King wrote it.
I believe that Frank Muller really is the voice of the Dark Tower series.
I believe that when Stephen King tells us to stop reading in DT VII, we
should heed that advice
