    you know, this one means a lot to me.. I even think of those words when something bad happens to me, or when I'm in a bad mood, I think that Roland would have understood..

    There are two I really like and I think they're both in Wolves of the Calla.
    The first is somewhere along the lines of "All the training in the world means nothing if you can't deliver when it matters" or something like that.
    And if anyone can find this quote I'd really appreciate it. It goes along the lines of "legends that last 1000 years are born in 15 minutes of battle" again I'm not 100% sure but I love both of those quotes

    couldn't find it, but stumbled upon this one I love: "Roland nodded. "And the shooting will happen so fast and be over so quick that you'll wonder what all the planning and palaver was for, when in the end it always comes down to the same five minutes' worth of blood, pain, and stupidity."

    I remember this quote, too!
    It's actually from Book 7, the very beginning of it, when Jake and Pere Callahan are just about to enter the Dixie Pig. The exact quote is: Battles that last five minutes spawn legends that live a thousand years.

    This quote is followed by an equally memorable one: You needn't die happy when your day comes, but you must die satisfied, for you have lived your life from beginning to end and ka is always served.

    I've just checked - in the Grant edition both of these quotes are on page 5.

    No problem, Sefear

    The other day I had a situation where a good quote really came in handy.
    I've been dreading a certain appointment (which, incidentally, is later today) for quite a few days by now. And I could not stop thinking about what could go wrong, yadda-yadda.
    Then yesterday I was looking for a piece of paper with someone's phone number in a purse that I have not used since last fall - and, lo and behold, first piece of paper that I fished out of the purse pocket had this quote on it: Let evil wait for the day on which it must fall. (In my handwriting, so no real magic here. ) I had a good laugh out of how timely it was.

    yes, we all should once collect the quotes from this thread and make a kind of I Ching... or at least some fortune cookies

    I like the idea of fortune cookies! And then just have them somewhere handy.
    Although I must say that in my case it was the suddenness of discovering that slip of paper that was the beauty of it all.

    It was you, shimmering and almost too beautiful to look at. my eyes were held by you, your tanned skin, the traingles of color, too pale and perfect to be makeup, which ran lightly up your cheeck; most of all your hair which was unbound and felll to your waist like a a shimmer of palest silk. i wanted you, suddenly and completely, with a desperate deph of feeling that felt like sickness. eveyrthing i was and everything i am was secondary to you it seemed
