Hello Constant Readers,

I'm pleased to say the bot has received a few new quotes. We don't announce updates, but these we're particularly excited about. Because the rotation is random, it could be days before they're posted, but I encourage you to look out for them.

Long days and pleasant nights!

Passage between worlds. Then the gunfire. Then the killing.

Memory and desire, stirring
Dull roots with spring rain.

The Dark Tower Bot @darktowerbot.bsky.social · 3d

Enjoy the cruise,
turn on the fan,
there’s nothing to lose,
so work on your tan.

Commala-come-call!
He made us great and small!
And yet how great the hand of fate
That rules us one and all.
