Favourite quotes from Dark Tower Series

thought i'd start this up cos theres just so many great lines!
Some that spring to my mind:

'The Man in Black fled across the Desert, and the Gunslinger followed'(of course)

'I don't like people, they **** me up'- Jake Chambers

'Go then, there are other worlds than these'- Jake Chambers

'but not for you Gunslinger, never for you. you darkle. you tinct. may I be brutally frank? You Go on.' - The Voice of the Tower

'First, fight the giant lobsters! Next, ride the psychotic train! And then, after a visit to our snackbar for a popkin or two-' - Eddie Dean

'at least I jack off with my left hand'- Roland after losing fingers on his right hand

'Do you have a cartomobile, a truckomobile, or a tacksee?'- Roland Deschain

"Officer Benzyck! It's good to see you and there's some jam right there on your collar, praise God!'- Rev. Earl Harrigan

anyone else got any favourites?

Re: Favourite quotes from Dark Tower Series

I think that maybe not the most eloquent as such, but definitely one of the most funny parts has to be when Jake just goes bananas on the driver of the car that nearly runs over Oy when he and Father Callahan get sent back to New York City. I can't remember whether that was the sixth or seventh book but it doesn't really matter.

Re: Favourite quotes from Dark Tower Series

Not the most...ah...eloquent quote, but it certainly stuck in my mind for being quite...unusual . It is, of course, said by Eddie:

"Go take a flying f*** at a rolling donut."

And yes, Jake's departing line when Roland drops him. That one certainly stays with you.

Re: Favourite quotes from Dark Tower Series

I don't remember Eddie saying that, but I'm sure that he did. That quote is originally from Slapstick by Kurt Vonnegut. it was part of a presidential candidates campaign. "Go take a flying **** at a rolling doughnut. Take a flying **** at the mooooooon."
