    Let's see...

    "I have no opinion. No, none at all. Opinion is politics, and politics is an evil that has caused many a man to be hung whil he's still young and pretty."
    -Cuthbert Allgood

    "KILL THEM ANDEW! EVERY SISTER FUCKING ONE OF THEM!"
    -Walter O'dim/Randal Flagg

    "Fault always lies in the same place: With him weak enough to lay blame."
    -Cort

    "I don't need a sigul!"
    -Pere Callahan

    The man finally gets his faith back and finds redemption.

    "May it do ya fine"
    -various

    That last one has definitely become a part of my vocabulary.

    Also pretty much anyhting Blaine says, but largely because of the way I pictured it in my head. I also found it hilarious anytime a robot was destroyed and a loudspeaker would blast "THIS UNIT IS SHUTTING DOWN!!!!!" for hours.

    thank you very much brice. done and done.
    please ignore any/all spelling mistakes regarding names, places, and words unique to DT. despite all the splendor george guidall added with his sultry/provocative voice, he neglected to spell out new/exciting words.

    "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

    a few awsome roland quotes;
    "first come smiles, then come lies. Last is gunfire."
    ""It's the way of the Eld, we are of that an-tet, khef and ka, watch and warrant, Gunslingers, do ya."

    But my fave has to be the one by the sage below
    "God pisses down your neck everyday, but only drowns you once.*

    "When the shooting starts, we kill what moves. " - Roland Deschain

    "Suppose that all worlds met in a single nexus, a single pylon, a Tower. A staurway perhaps, to the Godhead itself. Would you dare, gunslinger? Could it be that somewhere above all of endless reality there exists a room?

    You dare not."

    "Someone has dared," the gunslinger said.

    "Who would that be?"

    "God," the gunslinger said softly.


    Also i like,

    The gunslinger waited for the time of the drawing and dreamed his long dreams of he Dark Tower, to which he would someday come at dusk and approach, winding his horn, to do some unimaginable final battle.


    Now i have two questions.

    What do they mean by his horn, and why did King change the strangers name from Maerlyn to Legion?

    Hey,
    thank you for the great quotes.
    If I am right you have just read the first book. If I were in your shoes I would ask questions.. I mean it's a long series and you are reading it because you like it.
    You should be careful with the spoilers. If you keep asking questions you are gonna meet some.
    just my two cents

    Roland would have understood.

    Default help - trying to locate a passage

    I’m trying to find a really good passage from one of the DT books (I swear it’s from the last one) – but I can’t find it! I was hoping you could help me out – I’ve been flipping through the pages of the books and can’t find it! It’s a passage where Roland is walking along a road, in a town, I think, and thinking about the souls of his past falling into line behind him as he is pulling them along with him on his quest. Do you know the one I’m talking about? It’s driving me crazy!

    "Is it enough to put me in the club? Am I a gunslinger yet?" - Callahan

    "O Discordia"

    "Ka like a wind" (when Eddie says it at the end of Wizard and Glass)

    "Fuck Comalla" and in the same vein of Wolves, although I think Eddie uttered the latter in a later volume..."Oy! Eld! Thankee!"

    Welcome to the site.
    If only I could help you. I hope someone will remember it. We have lots of great minds with incredible memory here.

    I appreciate any help anyone can give me to locate the quote I posted about a few days ago. Another great quote:

    "Control the things you can control, Maggot, let everything else take a flying fuck at you. And if you must go down, go down with your guns a-blazing."

    I'm pretty sure it's The Drawing of the Three, but where exactly in it I'm not sure, though I'd guess towards the last third of the book.

    My favorites:

    We deal in lead. - Roland

    "WHAT DOES THAT SIGNIFY, FOOLISH CREATURE?" -Blaine
    "It's the world's smallest violin, playing 'My Heart Pumps Purple Piss for You.'" - Eddie

    If we were going to rape you, you would be one well-raped woman by now - Roland

    I really love this thread. It makes me want to re-read the books again.

    Also, this quote is one of my favorites.

    Holy crap me too!! It's why I became a Tower Junkie. That passage changed the way I looked at the world and my place in it. The book literally changed my life. I was so worried it was just me.....I'm so happy I found this site!! Thank you for this

    It's from Wizard and Glass, Hotbaud. Roland and Cuthbert are riding into Hambry and they pass the Delgado house and Roland sees Susan.

    "Roland looked up and saw Susan sitting in her window, a bright vision in the gray light of that fall morning. His heart leaped up and although he didn't know it then, it was how he would remember her most clearly forever after - lovely Susan, the girl at the window. So do we pass the ghosts that haunt us later in our lives; they sit undramatically by the roadside like poor beggars, and we see them only from the corners of our eyes, if we see them at all. The idea that they have been waiting there for us rarely if ever crosses our minds. Yet they do wait, and when we have passed, they gather up their bundles of memory and fall in behind, treading in our footsteps and catching up, little by little."
