Song of Susannah (The Dark Tower, #6)

by Stephen King

comfort served cold was better than no comfort at all):

‘Anger is the most useless emotion,’ Henchick intoned, ‘destructive to the mind and hurtful of the heart.’

all you imagined, no matter how wild it might seem, was no more than a disguised version of what you already knew.

a person liked to believe that things continued to go in the right direction, but it was best to be sure.

Ain’t hardly nothin in the world as pow’ful as a pissed-off Mommy.
