'but not for you Gunslinger, never for you. you darkle. you tinct. may I be brutally frank? You Go on.'
Oh, Christ. I left the world I knew to watch a kid try to put booties on a fucked-up weasel. Shoot me, Roland, before I breed.
Eddie again...
And finally from W&G
Fools are the only folk on the earth who can absolutely count on getting what they deserve.

Yeah, I love this one. So true. I try to remember it because I can be such a fool time to time.Originally Posted by VastOne

"The Man in Black fled across the desert, and June Carter followed"
I like this quote a lot. It is chilling yet comical.
A couple of quotes that I like that are comical that come from Eddie (of course)
1. Ka Ka when referring to how he feels about Roland's Ka.
2. Watch your ass, it's already cracked.
This series does have many 'satisfying' quotes from Roland though which I think is why his character is so strong and bad ass.
Where was this one?
Roland would have understood.
Can't remember what book it's from, but I tend to think it's true, it goes a little something like this.
"Never is the word God listens for when he needs a good laugh."
I think it was SoS, when Eddie remembered Henry's stock market rant, referring to lemmings.Where was this one?
Yes, it was in SoS:
"One thing I would most apple-solutely not sink my money into is all this computer shit, Microsoft, Macintosh, Sanyo, Sankyo, Pentium, all that."
"Seems pretty popular," Eddie had ventured. Not that he'd much cared, but what the hell, it was a conversation. "Microsoft, especially. The coming thing."
Henry had laughed indulgently and made jacking-off gestures. "My prick, that's the coming thing."
"But — "
"Yeah, yeah, I know, people're flocking to that crap. Driving all the prices up. And when I observe that action, do you know what I see?"
"No, what?"
"Lemons!"
"Lemons?" Eddie had asked. He'd thought he was following Henry, but he guessed he was lost, after all. Of course the sunset had been amazing that evening, and he had been most colossally fucked up.
"You heard me!" Henry had said, warming to the subject. "Fuckin lemons! Didn't they teach you anything in school, bro? Lemons are these little animals that live over in Switzerland, or someplace like that. And every now and then — I think it's every ten years, I'm not sure — they get suicidal and throw themselves over the cliffs."
"Oh," Eddie said, biting hard on the inside of his cheek to keep from bursting into mad cackles. "Those lemons. I thought you meant the ones you use to make lemonade."
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Do you know you come to the line of Eld?" Roland asked in that same curiously gentle voice. He stretched a hand towards Eddie, Susannah, and Jake. Even toward Oy. "For these are mine, sure. As I am theirs. We are round, and roll as we do. And you know what we are."
Please help me, folks.
Which is a correct quote, or are both?
Ka is a wheel
Ka is a circle

Remember, Remember, The Fifth of November, The Gunpowder, Treason, and Plot.
Ka is a wheel.
I have never seen the other.
Roland would have understood.
Thanks, Letti.

fucking lemons.
Yeah, I love that conversation. One of the most underappreciated aspects of this series is its consistent, and at times absolutely brilliant, humor. I think people miss that part of Stephen King's writing.
"Please," he said, and heard the word trying to break into a sob. He kept seeing Roland lying crushed beneath the huge fountain. What had Gasher said? If anyone wanted him, they would have to pick him up with a blotter. "Beg if you want, dear heart. Just don't expect no good to come of it, for mercy stops on this side of the bridge, so it does. Now go down, or I'll kick your bleedin brains right outcher bleedin ears."
"HONKY MAFAHS!"
hahaha holy cow. i always laugh when it can to 'Detta. my roommate could totally be her, I swear.
*came...man i really need to get used to this new laptop or everyone's gonna think im a horrible speller!!!
It's not really a quote but when Roland lost his fingers one of his first thoughts was how it was going to affect his masturbation.
